through the parts of your day you normally dread.

00:00:13.929 --> 00:00:16.570
Why suffer through the existential crisis of

00:00:16.570 --> 00:00:20.170
life alone when you can do it with us? And now

00:00:20.170 --> 00:00:23.190
we consume. This is not meant to be a conspiracy

00:00:23.190 --> 00:00:25.250
episode or podcast, but we may cover some topics

00:00:25.250 --> 00:00:26.510
that dance that line like a toddler dances on

00:00:26.510 --> 00:00:28.809
their mother's last nerve. This podcast is rated

00:00:28.809 --> 00:00:32.439
I. For immature audiences only. Did you know

00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:34.200
that if you fill your butthole with helium and

00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:36.500
superglue your cheeks shut, you will in fact

00:00:36.500 --> 00:00:38.640
not float away into space like some cool human

00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:41.159
balloon? You will just vomit and pass out and

00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:43.179
wake up in the hospital after they pop your anus

00:00:43.179 --> 00:00:45.340
open with a spring -loaded cheek spreader and

00:00:45.340 --> 00:00:48.020
deflate you like a meat whoopee cushion. With

00:00:48.020 --> 00:00:49.840
that fact, welcome to the Now We Consume podcast.

00:00:50.579 --> 00:00:53.700
I'm your host, Pip. Here as always with my stunned

00:00:53.700 --> 00:01:03.020
co -hosts, Gibbs and Gibbles. Hi......... What is the

00:01:03.020 --> 00:01:05.700
ratio of abuse that you have to get to where your

00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:09.099
brain comes up with that? Is it like being touched

00:01:09.099 --> 00:01:11.659
by your uncle then beaten by your aunt? How does

00:01:11.659 --> 00:01:14.439
this work? What is the mathematical equation

00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:16.920
to where *that* sentence comes out? What in the

00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:20.480
flying fuck did I just hear? Like the old guy

00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:23.120
sitting at the surplus store, Gibbs. I have seen

00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:29.040
some things. That is a case of boredom that I

00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:34.739
wish I'd never get. So welcome back, everybody.

00:01:34.980 --> 00:01:38.859
I hope you all are enjoying your weekend or weekend

00:01:38.859 --> 00:01:42.459
before Thanksgiving, the most glorious and gluttonous

00:01:42.459 --> 00:01:45.959
holiday that we have ever devised. This is a

00:01:45.959 --> 00:01:49.159
week. It truly is an American holiday. Oh, absolutely.

00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:51.120
It is gluttony through and through. This is a

00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:54.109
week of pure food chaos. That is unmatched anywhere

00:01:54.109 --> 00:01:56.390
in the world. You know what, though? I feel like

00:01:56.390 --> 00:01:58.409
in America we're lacking a little bit because

00:01:58.409 --> 00:02:01.489
fast food doesn't yet offer a to -go Thanksgiving

00:02:01.489 --> 00:02:04.909
meal. Just saying. The day that McDonald's and

00:02:04.909 --> 00:02:06.930
Wendy's and all of them offers a to -go Thanksgiving

00:02:06.930 --> 00:02:08.810
is when we'll reach peak amount. Yes, that will

00:02:08.810 --> 00:02:12.509
be it. Bob Evans is about the only place that

00:02:12.509 --> 00:02:14.909
has like a take -home meal around me anyways.

00:02:15.550 --> 00:02:17.349
But you have to get it like a day or two before,

00:02:17.550 --> 00:02:20.469
and then you have to heat it all up. That's not

00:02:20.469 --> 00:02:23.530
like fast food, though. Yeah, but you can get

00:02:23.530 --> 00:02:26.229
a Thanksgiving meal in, like, a sub form from,

00:02:26.270 --> 00:02:30.250
like, GetGo and different places like that. If

00:02:30.250 --> 00:02:32.469
you're brave enough, you can get a Thanksgiving

00:02:32.469 --> 00:02:37.150
meal from any gas station. Oh, yeah. What gas

00:02:37.150 --> 00:02:41.189
station sells turkey? There's turkey subs. Yeah,

00:02:41.189 --> 00:02:45.330
Country Fair, GetGo. It doesn't have to be hot.

00:02:45.490 --> 00:02:48.349
Like a full -on turkey? Well, yeah, at Thanksgiving

00:02:48.349 --> 00:02:51.710
you have a full turkey. Mm -hmm. That's just

00:02:51.710 --> 00:02:55.569
being picky. I mean, if you want, I mean, if

00:02:55.569 --> 00:02:57.789
you want a full on deli meat thing, you know,

00:02:57.789 --> 00:03:01.409
they get turkey from country fair. Yeah. Or like

00:03:01.409 --> 00:03:03.689
me, I go to the local store and I just pick up

00:03:03.689 --> 00:03:05.650
like a whole ass rotisserie chicken, but they

00:03:05.650 --> 00:03:08.629
also have rotisserie or not rotisserie slabs

00:03:08.629 --> 00:03:11.310
of turkey cut up too. It's great either way.

00:03:12.349 --> 00:03:14.530
So this week we are going to do a little bit

00:03:14.530 --> 00:03:16.210
of a different episode. We're doing a lightning

00:03:16.210 --> 00:03:19.819
round style of episode. because next week is

00:03:19.819 --> 00:03:22.439
going to be our one -year anniversary for the

00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:26.219
show. Give it up, everybody. Woot, woot. Thank

00:03:26.219 --> 00:03:30.139
you all for being here. Raise that roof. Woot,

00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:34.819
woot. So aside from astounding ourselves for

00:03:34.819 --> 00:03:37.219
being able to keep our attention focused on something

00:03:37.219 --> 00:03:41.120
for a year, we're trying to get an episode done

00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:42.639
that we've been working on, honestly, since last

00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:45.780
season to have that be our show for next week.

00:04:09.909 --> 00:04:18.540
All right. So today. I bring to you McDonald's

00:04:18.540 --> 00:04:21.060
burger to believe the world's oldest quarter

00:04:21.060 --> 00:04:26.040
pounder turns 30. Quote unquote, it's no longer

00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:30.220
food. It wasn't food when it was made. Right?

00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:33.540
Hold on, let me see if I can pull this picture

00:04:33.540 --> 00:04:37.079
up. Hold on, so is it like just hanging out?

00:04:37.259 --> 00:04:41.079
Like is it in a container? Is it like... It's

00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:44.500
just hanging out from what I've seen. How is

00:04:44.500 --> 00:04:46.939
it still a burger? How is it not like just a

00:04:46.939 --> 00:04:50.060
pile of jello or like just biological matter?

00:04:50.259 --> 00:04:52.019
Well, so you remember the episode we did on our

00:04:52.019 --> 00:04:57.540
food is killing us? Yeah. That's why. Does it

00:04:57.540 --> 00:05:00.279
still look like a burger? This is yet more proof.

00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:04.680
Which I want to kind of shout out the video that

00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:06.120
I made the other day and put up on Facebook.

00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:10.540
Oh my God. Look at this thing. If you're listening

00:05:10.540 --> 00:05:14.170
on the audio platforms. Please come over and

00:05:14.170 --> 00:05:17.009
check out the video that accompanies the show

00:05:17.009 --> 00:05:21.230
because holy shitballs. So wait a minute. That's

00:05:21.230 --> 00:05:23.250
a 30 -year -old burger? That's a 30 -year -old.

00:05:23.990 --> 00:05:27.610
That literally looks like a usual chicken sandwich

00:05:27.610 --> 00:05:30.389
from most fast food places. Wow. And if you look

00:05:30.389 --> 00:05:33.110
closely, the darker parts on the meat patty,

00:05:33.149 --> 00:05:35.670
that's where the ketchup at one point was. That's

00:05:35.670 --> 00:05:40.290
not the cheese. That's the ketchup. Yeah. It's

00:05:40.290 --> 00:05:42.129
just a quarter pounder. It's not a quarter pounder

00:05:42.129 --> 00:05:47.459
with cheese. Okay. Okay. Fair. Wow. How is the

00:05:47.459 --> 00:05:50.180
timeout? Yep. How is there not mold on the bread?

00:05:50.959 --> 00:05:55.560
They put anti -mold agents in the bread. So I

00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:57.800
made a video and put it up on Facebook the other

00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:01.240
day. I have a package of bread up in my kitchen

00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:06.639
from July. I stumbled on it a few weeks ago,

00:06:06.699 --> 00:06:09.779
realizing when it was from. It's not molded.

00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:12.560
It's hamburger buns. They're not molded. They're

00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.560
still soft. The bag has been opened. It's been

00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:19.620
used, but I compared it to some sub buns that

00:06:19.620 --> 00:06:22.860
I got just this week. The sub buns are showing

00:06:22.860 --> 00:06:29.079
mold now. Um, they have to be tossed. So this,

00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:33.980
this, this is a thing. Yeah. Uh, according to

00:06:33.980 --> 00:06:36.220
the guy that's had this thing for the last 30

00:06:36.220 --> 00:06:39.620
years, he said that, uh, this thing has been

00:06:39.620 --> 00:06:45.139
just in a, It's been out in the shed. Where else

00:06:45.139 --> 00:06:49.459
has it been? But it's still got the McDonald's

00:06:49.459 --> 00:06:51.980
stamped beige paper packaging all this time.

00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:57.199
Hasn't been refrigerated. It's been stuffed in

00:06:57.199 --> 00:06:59.399
cupboards, garbage bags, and sheds. It's still

00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:02.279
eerily intact, as you can see. And it hasn't

00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:06.939
developed any mold or bad odor. Sporting McDonald's,

00:07:06.939 --> 00:07:09.870
huh? Does this guy have like an emotional support

00:07:09.870 --> 00:07:15.610
hamburger? I'm right. Why? Why did he keep it?

00:07:15.629 --> 00:07:17.670
I need to know. I need to ask this guy like,

00:07:17.750 --> 00:07:20.610
hey, so you found a burger. Yeah, yeah. And you

00:07:20.610 --> 00:07:25.910
kept it. Oh, yeah. For 30 years. Yeah. Why? Why

00:07:25.910 --> 00:07:29.589
not is the better question at this point. Right.

00:07:29.769 --> 00:07:34.540
Oh, my God. I mean, those of us that have kids,

00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:36.639
we've all found that random chicken nugget in

00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:41.480
our backseat a year later. Right. And it's dried

00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:46.519
out. But it still looks fine. Yeah. I don't know

00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:48.040
how many of you guys have also given it the bite

00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:54.500
test, but you didn't. I'm sorry. What? You got

00:07:54.500 --> 00:07:55.879
to give them the bite test and see what they

00:07:55.879 --> 00:07:58.509
taste like. No, you don't. No one says you have

00:07:58.509 --> 00:08:00.930
to. Do you think? Hold on. Is someone putting

00:08:00.930 --> 00:08:02.370
a gun to your head or something? What's going

00:08:02.370 --> 00:08:04.910
on? Right. Do you want to die? Because that's

00:08:04.910 --> 00:08:08.250
how you're going to die. I will neither confirm

00:08:08.250 --> 00:08:12.769
or deny. Oh, my God. All right. Stomach. So I

00:08:12.769 --> 00:08:16.649
did not swallow that bite of chicken nugget.

00:08:17.850 --> 00:08:21.930
Well, here's the best part. According to McDonald's,

00:08:21.949 --> 00:08:24.160
this isn't supposed to happen. They're like,

00:08:24.220 --> 00:08:28.220
we don't know why the burger hasn't aged. But

00:08:28.220 --> 00:08:31.139
they're like, you know, they're saying it's a

00:08:31.139 --> 00:08:33.879
huge myth that the burgers never go bad and break

00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:36.659
down. They're like, you know, there had to be

00:08:36.659 --> 00:08:40.059
some, you know, special situation where, you

00:08:40.059 --> 00:08:43.360
know, it was just a very dry environment or,

00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:47.059
you know, somehow it got dehydrated. Come on.

00:08:47.159 --> 00:08:49.419
Nope. Everybody that eats at McDonald's knows

00:08:49.419 --> 00:08:52.980
that while it's hot and fresh, okay, yeah, it's

00:08:52.980 --> 00:08:56.259
still... It's edible. Some people like it. Some

00:08:56.259 --> 00:08:59.139
people don't. However, we all know at the end

00:08:59.139 --> 00:09:01.259
of the day, when you pump enough preservatives

00:09:01.259 --> 00:09:04.320
and chemicals into the food, it's not going to

00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:07.779
break down. Yeah. I lived on that shit for years.

00:09:07.940 --> 00:09:12.639
And I mean, look at me. I'm living proof. Oh,

00:09:12.840 --> 00:09:16.759
and article. Okay. So they're saying the reason

00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:20.379
why he kept it is it got shoved into a cupboard.

00:09:20.659 --> 00:09:24.610
So, uh, whoa, what's. Nitz explains a friend

00:09:24.610 --> 00:09:26.230
couldn't finish the burger and asked them to

00:09:26.230 --> 00:09:29.049
hold on to it. The friend never came back, but

00:09:29.049 --> 00:09:32.509
he kept his promise. And then his mom begged

00:09:32.509 --> 00:09:34.830
him to throw out the stale food that was sitting

00:09:34.830 --> 00:09:37.889
at his desk. But because he was a stubborn teenager,

00:09:38.269 --> 00:09:40.269
he refused to get rid of it, so he shoved it

00:09:40.269 --> 00:09:43.450
in a box and put it in the cupboard. Because

00:09:43.450 --> 00:09:45.049
he made a promise that he wouldn't throw it away.

00:09:45.309 --> 00:09:49.250
You know, that's a good friend, but I mean, damn.

00:09:51.110 --> 00:09:52.990
You know, at some point, you just got to go.

00:09:55.389 --> 00:09:59.970
It's got to go. He's not coming back. No. I don't

00:09:59.970 --> 00:10:05.309
think he's going to eat it. No, but, you know,

00:10:05.330 --> 00:10:08.669
that's a good friend that does that. All right,

00:10:08.730 --> 00:10:13.309
so moving on. Gibbs, did you have one? I have

00:10:13.309 --> 00:10:15.509
a couple. Okay. I'll just pull up the first one

00:10:15.509 --> 00:10:20.580
here. So this was an interesting one. So a while

00:10:20.580 --> 00:10:22.980
ago, somebody had made a game called you are

00:10:22.980 --> 00:10:25.659
Jeff Bezos, which basically it was the idea of

00:10:25.659 --> 00:10:27.840
like, if you had access to Jeff Bezos who runs

00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:29.519
Amazon, all the, his email and like, you could

00:10:29.519 --> 00:10:31.679
like see what you could do with like your 150

00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:35.500
or $200 billion of value or whatever. So somebody

00:10:35.500 --> 00:10:38.960
decided, Oh, let's make a game where you have

00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:41.039
a clone Gmail account, except you're logged in

00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:42.899
as Jeffrey Epstein and you could see all his

00:10:42.899 --> 00:10:46.960
emails. And it is one of the most cursed games

00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:50.240
I've ever seen. I, There were things I cannot

00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:52.840
show for obvious reasons. Oh, no. But I thought

00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:54.860
it was kind of hilarious considering everything

00:10:54.860 --> 00:10:57.759
that's happened that you could be on Steam playing.

00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:00.779
You are Epstein or playing as Epstein or whatever.

00:11:00.899 --> 00:11:03.100
Oh, through the emails. Some of them are just

00:11:03.100 --> 00:11:05.080
really funny gag stuff. Like some of it's just

00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:08.080
random, like hilarious stuff. But the reason

00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:09.559
why I want to bring this up is because some of

00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:11.000
the stuff politically they were talking about

00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:12.960
how the Epstein files of some stuff got like

00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:15.419
released. So now they're going to be doing jokes.

00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:19.519
about certain politicians doing certain things

00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:21.539
to other people, so it's meant to be a gag kind

00:11:21.539 --> 00:11:24.779
of thing, like a funny thing. But who the hell

00:11:24.779 --> 00:11:28.539
thought, ah, yes, let's turn the Epstein documents

00:11:28.539 --> 00:11:31.360
into emails and release it as a video game? Oh,

00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:34.559
Jesus. I just had a good laugh with it. I could

00:11:34.559 --> 00:11:37.240
see that totally as a Rick and Morty episode.

00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:42.500
Yeah. Honestly. Oh, geez. Instead of being John

00:11:42.500 --> 00:11:53.929
Malkovich, it's being Jeff Epstein. It's just

00:11:53.929 --> 00:11:57.809
such a stupid little thing, but I just thought

00:11:57.809 --> 00:12:02.429
it was hilarious. Yeah. Because I was like, who

00:12:02.429 --> 00:12:04.450
else? The thing is, who else are they going to

00:12:04.450 --> 00:12:06.830
start doing that with? Who else would be like

00:12:06.830 --> 00:12:11.720
a funny person to do that? I have the best email.

00:12:11.820 --> 00:12:16.379
It's the best. It's just so great. Anybody that

00:12:16.379 --> 00:12:18.379
sees my email, they're just going to be blown

00:12:18.379 --> 00:12:22.399
away. Yeah. All right. Did you have another one

00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:26.480
that you wanted to mention? We've got Mountain

00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:30.519
of Illegally Dumped Trash near Oxford River in

00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:32.419
England. Oh, yeah. Did you have the picture on

00:12:32.419 --> 00:12:35.139
that one? Because that was pretty gross. Let

00:12:35.139 --> 00:12:39.379
me see. Oh, that's a video. We don't want a video.

00:12:40.860 --> 00:12:46.779
Yeah, so there's rivers in England that are getting

00:12:46.779 --> 00:12:53.039
pretty gross, for lack of a better term. We won't

00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:56.059
get into why. That's for a separate politics

00:12:56.059 --> 00:13:00.100
kind of thing. That's the river. I'll go ahead.

00:13:00.279 --> 00:13:03.879
So it now identifies as a solid. It's no longer

00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:08.190
a liquid. From what the discussion that I saw,

00:13:08.289 --> 00:13:13.009
it was like several hundred tons of trash. Right

00:13:13.009 --> 00:13:15.789
now it's some of the rivers in England. It's

00:13:15.789 --> 00:13:24.389
just a causeway of pure... I can't even describe

00:13:24.389 --> 00:13:27.990
it. This took like barely a year for this to

00:13:27.990 --> 00:13:31.450
happen. They're saying like just... Back in April

00:13:31.450 --> 00:13:33.750
2024 or something, like, everything was fine,

00:13:33.870 --> 00:13:36.529
and then all of a sudden, boom, trash. So what's

00:13:36.529 --> 00:13:40.330
interesting, though, so away from the politics

00:13:40.330 --> 00:13:42.710
side, what was interesting, if you look at the

00:13:42.710 --> 00:13:45.870
trash, a lot of it is processed, which means

00:13:45.870 --> 00:13:50.450
there are companies operating and illegally dumping

00:13:50.450 --> 00:13:53.309
over there. And apparently this isn't the only,

00:13:53.389 --> 00:13:55.789
this one's by far the worst case, but they're

00:13:55.789 --> 00:13:57.450
having a problem in England where some people

00:13:57.450 --> 00:13:59.570
have come over and they didn't know how to deal

00:13:59.570 --> 00:14:02.399
with it. in terms of local services, that they

00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:05.639
have other companies that deal with trash and

00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:08.399
waste that are just taking on the contracts,

00:14:08.559 --> 00:14:10.340
taking the waste, and putting it somewhere else.

00:14:11.139 --> 00:14:15.639
Yep. Fly tipping. Yeah, that's what they call

00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:17.500
it over there. Which, by the way, I don't know

00:14:17.500 --> 00:14:20.379
who's tipping flies, but that's weird. I've tipped

00:14:20.379 --> 00:14:22.600
a cow. That's a complicated process. I don't

00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:24.659
get it. I have tipped a cow, but I've never tipped

00:14:24.659 --> 00:14:27.440
a fly unless you count flicking it off of the

00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:31.720
surface it was on. That's non -consensual ejection.

00:14:31.779 --> 00:14:36.779
That's the world's cheapest space program. You

00:14:36.779 --> 00:14:42.379
were the weakest link. Goodbye. Yes. All expense

00:14:42.379 --> 00:14:46.200
paid trip to over there. Not only that, can you

00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:48.419
imagine waking up in the morning and you walk

00:14:48.419 --> 00:14:50.019
out to your front yard to get your newspaper

00:14:50.019 --> 00:14:53.139
and then, hey, look, there's last night's trash

00:14:53.139 --> 00:14:58.570
from the local porno shop. Hey, I recognize that.

00:15:01.750 --> 00:15:05.450
Damn. Yeah. I was wondering why it smelled like

00:15:05.450 --> 00:15:09.590
latex and shame out here. Yeah. But it's apparently

00:15:09.590 --> 00:15:13.029
a problem that's happening really all over Europe

00:15:13.029 --> 00:15:15.850
besides Poland, but really in the UK a lot. That's

00:15:15.850 --> 00:15:17.830
been a big thing, especially in local parks and

00:15:17.830 --> 00:15:19.230
stuff like that. Nature reserves, whatever you

00:15:19.230 --> 00:15:22.279
want to call it. Yeah. But the other problem

00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:24.419
with this was that the local town is apparently

00:15:24.419 --> 00:15:26.740
responsible for cleaning it up. And they were

00:15:26.740 --> 00:15:29.340
like, we don't have the funds to do this. And

00:15:29.340 --> 00:15:31.840
the federal government was like, how about no?

00:15:32.059 --> 00:15:33.860
Like, we're not going to get involved because

00:15:33.860 --> 00:15:35.899
we don't have money. So now it's because this

00:15:35.899 --> 00:15:38.200
whole big problem of like who is actually responsible,

00:15:38.580 --> 00:15:42.419
but they don't know who's dumping it, which I

00:15:42.419 --> 00:15:44.299
do find kind of weird because they have police

00:15:44.299 --> 00:15:46.539
cameras and traffic cameras everywhere in England.

00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:48.340
A lot of the cameras have been getting knocked

00:15:48.340 --> 00:15:54.850
down. yeah i wonder why so it's well so a lot

00:15:54.850 --> 00:15:56.110
of the cameras have been getting knocked down

00:15:56.110 --> 00:15:59.169
because they're being used to enforce fines and

00:15:59.169 --> 00:16:01.429
facial recognition stuff that a lot of the people

00:16:01.429 --> 00:16:05.289
are just fed up with so we'll we'll go into further

00:16:05.289 --> 00:16:08.230
detail on on some of the more political episodes

00:16:08.230 --> 00:16:11.049
that we do but you know good on the people for

00:16:11.049 --> 00:16:12.850
fighting back on the facial recognition shit

00:16:12.850 --> 00:16:16.169
because that needs to happen oh yeah yeah so

00:16:16.169 --> 00:16:21.889
it sounded more and more like china Yeah. It's

00:16:21.889 --> 00:16:23.090
just one of the things to keep in mind that I

00:16:23.090 --> 00:16:24.649
think something in the Western world we're dealing

00:16:24.649 --> 00:16:27.269
with is just waste in general and waste management.

00:16:27.750 --> 00:16:30.250
That's now becoming really a new trillion dollar

00:16:30.250 --> 00:16:32.909
industry is what do we do with all the waste

00:16:32.909 --> 00:16:34.809
and all these things? How do we process it? How

00:16:34.809 --> 00:16:36.929
do we deal with it? Yeah. And unfortunately,

00:16:37.029 --> 00:16:39.129
a lot of cases, there's like no real straightforward

00:16:39.129 --> 00:16:41.590
answer because the costs in order to do that

00:16:41.590 --> 00:16:44.870
kind of stuff is just skyrocketing. Skyrocketing.

00:16:46.289 --> 00:16:50.470
I mean, there was a whole episode of Futurama

00:16:50.470 --> 00:16:52.330
about how they handled their trash in the future.

00:16:52.409 --> 00:16:54.309
They strapped it all into a rocket and launched

00:16:54.309 --> 00:16:56.789
it into the sun. I still don't see the problem

00:16:56.789 --> 00:17:00.950
with that. Has anyone ever proven if that wouldn't

00:17:00.950 --> 00:17:04.849
work? Yeah, it would absolutely work. It's bad.

00:17:05.450 --> 00:17:08.430
They're getting it into orbit and then the risk

00:17:08.430 --> 00:17:12.210
of the rocket exploding. That's true. Especially

00:17:12.210 --> 00:17:15.160
if the Russians did it. or north korea because

00:17:15.160 --> 00:17:16.920
i mean if we do it then everyone else is going

00:17:16.920 --> 00:17:19.839
to try it and could you imagine dirty diapers

00:17:19.839 --> 00:17:27.940
raining for miles just build a rail gun into

00:17:27.940 --> 00:17:30.859
the side of a mountain and just shoot it kinetically

00:17:30.859 --> 00:17:34.500
okay so the kinetic accelerator like the the

00:17:34.500 --> 00:17:38.079
the centrifugal accelerator yeah yeah You just

00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:40.220
compact everything down to cubes and then just

00:17:40.220 --> 00:17:42.759
launch, you know? Yeah, just mammal kind of shit.

00:17:42.940 --> 00:17:46.980
Hell yeah. I think that needs revisited now that

00:17:46.980 --> 00:17:50.220
we have better technology. Because that would

00:17:50.220 --> 00:17:53.440
be hilarious. Humanity develops the fastest space

00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:56.640
-faring vessel ever designed. And what does it

00:17:56.640 --> 00:18:00.299
do? It launches our shit. Yep. Literally. Literally.

00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:05.259
Yeah. Where's it going? To the sun. Away. Yes.

00:18:05.440 --> 00:18:10.609
Where's it going? Away. away away not here all

00:18:10.609 --> 00:18:12.589
right imagine the international space station

00:18:12.589 --> 00:18:15.150
agency literally a pile of shit flying by you

00:18:15.150 --> 00:18:20.869
it's going at you know speed of jesus christ

00:18:20.869 --> 00:18:25.910
all right so i want to hit a news article um

00:18:25.910 --> 00:18:29.809
special announcement we here at the now we consume

00:18:29.809 --> 00:18:35.519
podcast have obtained dark web access only photographs

00:18:35.519 --> 00:18:40.240
of comet three eye Atlas. It took an immense

00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:43.640
amount of research to find these. You are not

00:18:43.640 --> 00:18:46.099
going to find these images anywhere else on the

00:18:46.099 --> 00:18:50.640
web. I can promise you. So here tonight. And

00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:52.980
again, if you're on the audio versions, please

00:18:52.980 --> 00:18:58.000
go check out the stream. Oh, these pictures are

00:18:58.000 --> 00:19:02.349
going to show definitively this comet. is 100

00:19:02.349 --> 00:19:05.569
technological in origin and i know this sounds

00:19:05.569 --> 00:19:12.109
crazy but gibbles go ahead drop the feed not

00:19:12.109 --> 00:19:15.549
that one we have proof no we have proof right

00:19:15.549 --> 00:19:19.210
there that comet as you can see is not natural

00:19:20.410 --> 00:19:25.369
How did I know? How did I know? How did I know?

00:19:25.670 --> 00:19:27.690
Honestly, I fully expected you to do something

00:19:27.690 --> 00:19:29.890
stupid like me dressed in drag or something crazy.

00:19:30.309 --> 00:19:32.269
That is actually not as offensive as I thought

00:19:32.269 --> 00:19:36.549
you'd be. You know what's funny with that AI

00:19:36.549 --> 00:19:38.990
photo? I look like a mix -up between myself and

00:19:38.990 --> 00:19:43.029
Lieutenant. I was thinking Iron, but do you have

00:19:43.029 --> 00:19:45.700
the other one? gibbles i'm working i'm working

00:19:45.700 --> 00:19:48.660
i'm working yeah at least honestly the headset's

00:19:48.660 --> 00:19:51.079
done a pretty good detail like that it is gibbs

00:19:51.079 --> 00:19:55.339
is now urbaning the earth where is it i don't

00:19:55.339 --> 00:19:56.480
know it's wherever you put it it's your computer

00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:02.660
you know i am i am not surprised but also what

00:20:02.660 --> 00:20:10.619
the fuck so there he is there he is so there

00:20:10.619 --> 00:20:14.720
we go Gibbs is just riding around in space. Fair

00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:19.259
enough. Fair enough. Then how am I here? Well,

00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:21.660
you were done orbiting the Earth, and then you

00:20:21.660 --> 00:20:24.359
came back. It was a long trip. It was a long

00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:28.619
trip. So, yeah, we wanted to have a little bit

00:20:28.619 --> 00:20:31.880
of fun with that. I might change that to my Discord

00:20:31.880 --> 00:20:35.140
profile. That's hilarious, actually. I kind of

00:20:35.140 --> 00:20:41.279
like it. But in all seriousness. Elon Musk was

00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:43.180
talking about the comet and how it's kind of

00:20:43.180 --> 00:20:46.480
haunting. We're still watching it, but we do

00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:48.200
have at least some more definitive proof that

00:20:48.200 --> 00:20:52.180
it is, in fact, a natural phenomenon. So, unfortunately,

00:20:52.380 --> 00:20:55.359
there will be no clapping cheeks of aliens this

00:20:55.359 --> 00:21:01.940
month, like we had hoped. Jesus Christ. Yeah.

00:21:02.019 --> 00:21:07.960
I'm sad. We have... Listener confessions. This

00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:11.279
is going to be for an upcoming episode. We would

00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:14.960
like everybody that listens to the show to either

00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:18.759
via Facebook or on discord or on Instagram, whichever

00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:23.559
submit your most embarrassing, weird, or what

00:21:23.559 --> 00:21:26.819
the hell story anonymously. We will read them

00:21:26.819 --> 00:21:30.299
out to each other and get live reactions. And

00:21:30.299 --> 00:21:34.460
we'll try to guess if they're real or fake. So

00:21:34.460 --> 00:21:36.799
if you want to make up a story, That's fine.

00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:39.819
Let's have at it. Just notate whether it actually

00:21:39.819 --> 00:21:42.720
happened or if this is just total bullshit. Give

00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:45.480
us a challenge. We'd like to see what you can

00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:48.500
come up with for us. That's dangerous. It is.

00:21:49.339 --> 00:21:52.720
I could tell the missile story on air. Oh, yes.

00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:57.119
Yes. Or the other story that shall not be named.

00:21:58.079 --> 00:22:02.160
Oh, that one. That one. That one. We have a special

00:22:02.160 --> 00:22:04.039
guest that we have to tell him we're doing that

00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:07.519
one. Well, yeah, maybe watch it. So you watch

00:22:07.519 --> 00:22:14.980
it. Oh yeah. Um, in, in the news, uh, Qatar had

00:22:14.980 --> 00:22:17.759
an emergency alert drill that scared the absolute

00:22:17.759 --> 00:22:22.099
shit out of everybody. Uh, they had their, Oh,

00:22:23.220 --> 00:22:26.720
they, they had a nationwide siren blast for the

00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:29.779
world cup prep. Uh, people's phones went off.

00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:33.559
uh they started to panic buy supplies like it

00:22:33.559 --> 00:22:37.319
was a y2k prep so that would have been fun similar

00:22:37.319 --> 00:22:40.339
to that hawaii missile alert can you imagine

00:22:40.339 --> 00:22:42.740
if you're in one of those countries that like

00:22:42.740 --> 00:22:45.779
routinely gets that kind of bullshit and your

00:22:45.779 --> 00:22:50.019
phone gets the you're going to die alert and

00:22:50.019 --> 00:22:53.180
then spam stock goes through the roof you know

00:22:53.180 --> 00:22:55.859
what i gotta be honest with you in like nine

00:22:55.859 --> 00:22:57.680
months you're gonna see a big uptick of kids

00:22:57.680 --> 00:23:01.690
uh yeah There's a lot of people that said, well,

00:23:01.849 --> 00:23:06.450
last ride to die, baby. Oh, God, yeah. No protection

00:23:06.450 --> 00:23:08.650
required because we're not going to be here tomorrow.

00:23:10.869 --> 00:23:12.970
And then an hour later, it's like, we need to

00:23:12.970 --> 00:23:17.430
go to CVS. That's bold of you to think they have

00:23:17.430 --> 00:23:21.269
CVS at Qatar. I know. I could say what it actually

00:23:21.269 --> 00:23:24.970
is, but that would get us off air. I know in

00:23:24.970 --> 00:23:30.110
Kuwait, they have a Chili's. That's true. They

00:23:30.110 --> 00:23:32.450
have an Applebee's, too. I went to the Applebee's.

00:23:32.450 --> 00:23:34.130
It was really nice. They have a Chili's in Qatar

00:23:34.130 --> 00:23:36.410
because I went to it. Oh, wait. That was Bahrain.

00:23:36.650 --> 00:23:39.869
That was Bahrain. Yeah. I went to Applebee's

00:23:39.869 --> 00:23:42.430
in Kuwait City. That was awesome. Nice. A little

00:23:42.430 --> 00:23:44.269
weird because the bar was empty, but you know.

00:23:45.130 --> 00:23:50.470
Yeah. The U .S. Mint is retiring the penny. So

00:23:50.470 --> 00:23:54.789
goodbye to Lincoln's shiny scam. After 232 years,

00:23:54.990 --> 00:23:58.309
no more one -cent coins. This is the final fuck

00:23:58.309 --> 00:24:01.869
you to couch change. Pennies were worthless anyways,

00:24:02.109 --> 00:24:04.349
but now rounding up prices will screw the poor.

00:24:07.130 --> 00:24:11.210
We need to do it. What? I was getting ready to

00:24:11.210 --> 00:24:14.750
say I've already seen the shenanigans from this

00:24:14.750 --> 00:24:17.490
app, from this situation. Oh, yeah. Standing

00:24:17.490 --> 00:24:20.369
in line at a gas station. Oh, my God. People

00:24:20.369 --> 00:24:22.049
think pennies are just suddenly disappearing

00:24:22.049 --> 00:24:24.839
now. they're not going away anytime soon. We

00:24:24.839 --> 00:24:26.920
have like 30 years worth of pennies in circulation.

00:24:27.559 --> 00:24:29.420
There's trillions of pennies in circulation.

00:24:30.099 --> 00:24:33.140
Oh, yeah. Well, then you've got companies that

00:24:33.140 --> 00:24:36.420
are like, oh, well, if it's going to be pennies

00:24:36.420 --> 00:24:38.579
or no more, we're not taking them. So we'll either

00:24:38.579 --> 00:24:41.579
round up or round down. And then you end up with

00:24:41.579 --> 00:24:44.720
a situation with poor people arguing about two

00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:48.670
cents. Yeah, that should be. That should be fun.

00:24:48.730 --> 00:24:50.049
You know what's going to be funny? I wonder the

00:24:50.049 --> 00:24:51.309
amount of people that are going to be illegally

00:24:51.309 --> 00:24:53.329
collecting pennies to melt down and sell the

00:24:53.329 --> 00:24:55.390
copper and whatever things that's in them, the

00:24:55.390 --> 00:24:56.890
metals, because they're worth more than the value

00:24:56.890 --> 00:24:59.230
of a penny. So I was watching a video on that

00:24:59.230 --> 00:25:03.029
recently, and in the next few years, the older

00:25:03.029 --> 00:25:05.029
pennies are probably going to go up in value

00:25:05.029 --> 00:25:07.069
because people will do just that, especially

00:25:07.069 --> 00:25:10.809
if the price of copper keeps going up. Have you

00:25:10.809 --> 00:25:14.259
seen the price of copper lately? Yeah. it's that's

00:25:14.259 --> 00:25:16.119
why i was redoing some plumbing on saturday i

00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:18.579
did pvc because i'm not paying for copper boy

00:25:18.579 --> 00:25:20.920
yeah hoarding all my copper in the house fuck

00:25:20.920 --> 00:25:24.779
you you can't have my copper yeah copper's ridiculous

00:25:24.779 --> 00:25:28.000
well not just copper either it's like all the

00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:31.900
precious metals um here let me let me get a live

00:25:31.900 --> 00:25:33.940
price real quick while we're on the topic silver

00:25:33.940 --> 00:25:36.660
to start mining silver is at fifty dollars and

00:25:36.660 --> 00:25:41.460
nineteen cents an ounce I'm not that old, and

00:25:41.460 --> 00:25:44.059
I can remember when silver was $4 an ounce. $2

00:25:44.059 --> 00:25:46.279
an ounce, even. I remember when I was younger,

00:25:46.319 --> 00:25:51.279
it was like $8 or $10. Gold is sitting at $4

00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:54.839
,067 an ounce right now. I remember when gold

00:25:54.839 --> 00:25:57.420
was like $1 ,000 an ounce. I can remember when

00:25:57.420 --> 00:26:00.839
it was $2 .50 an ounce. Well, that too. Again,

00:26:00.940 --> 00:26:07.670
I'm old. Copper. We're the same age. Copper is

00:26:07.670 --> 00:26:12.609
coming up on $5 a pound. That is where goddamn

00:26:12.609 --> 00:26:17.490
ridiculous. Not explain why there's not much

00:26:17.490 --> 00:26:21.029
copper in my new house. Uh -huh. Not that long

00:26:21.029 --> 00:26:23.690
ago. Copper was sitting at like a dollar 52 dollars

00:26:23.690 --> 00:26:28.349
a pound. So yeah, the pennies that they just

00:26:28.349 --> 00:26:36.240
got rid of the new pennies were Let me see. Let

00:26:36.240 --> 00:26:38.700
me see. Let me guess. It costs about a nickel

00:26:38.700 --> 00:26:45.900
to make. Metal value was .008 cents. So still

00:26:45.900 --> 00:26:48.819
less than a penny. The old pennies, however,

00:26:49.019 --> 00:26:55.119
were 3 .2 cents. So that kind of raises a question.

00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:57.500
What math were they going on to get rid of the

00:26:57.500 --> 00:27:03.640
penny? Well, it depends on who was president

00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:07.200
at the time, I guess. Trump. They just did it.

00:27:08.579 --> 00:27:11.099
Because this is not showing that it's three cents

00:27:11.099 --> 00:27:16.079
worth of material for the penny. I don't know.

00:27:16.400 --> 00:27:18.819
Nickels are almost six cents each, so they'll

00:27:18.819 --> 00:27:23.119
be next. Nickel is sitting at $6 .50 a pound.

00:27:23.980 --> 00:27:27.380
So that's kind of cool. Start hoarding nickels.

00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:35.079
And by the way, if you have any old silver change,

00:27:35.299 --> 00:27:38.420
if you know how to look for it, hold on to that

00:27:38.420 --> 00:27:41.660
shit because, oh, my God. Oh, yeah. Silver quarters

00:27:41.660 --> 00:27:43.579
make a very unique sound when they hit the table.

00:27:43.579 --> 00:27:47.259
Yes, they do. And for reference, silver quarters

00:27:47.259 --> 00:27:49.480
right now, this is not a coin collecting channel,

00:27:49.779 --> 00:27:55.119
$9 a piece. Wow, I got nine bucks in the safe.

00:27:55.200 --> 00:27:59.180
Nice. I've got almost a whole quarter roll of

00:27:59.180 --> 00:28:02.509
those upstairs. Where the hell do you find them?

00:28:03.490 --> 00:28:08.210
Change. Laundromats, dude. Go to laundromats.

00:28:09.970 --> 00:28:12.650
Wait a minute. I never thought about this. You

00:28:12.650 --> 00:28:15.089
build a laundromat in a rich area and you don't

00:28:15.089 --> 00:28:16.549
even try to do it to make a profit. You just

00:28:16.549 --> 00:28:18.529
collect all the fucking rare coins. Uh -huh.

00:28:18.809 --> 00:28:21.329
Yeah. Wow. There are coin channels that'll tell

00:28:21.329 --> 00:28:23.470
you all the key date coins and error coins and

00:28:23.470 --> 00:28:25.710
shit. Yeah, there's a lot of those. There's an

00:28:25.710 --> 00:28:27.450
app you can use to scan them. Uh -huh. Just like

00:28:27.450 --> 00:28:30.779
cards. Yeah. Just like the magic cards? Yes.

00:28:30.819 --> 00:28:34.259
There's an app for coins. I know because I have

00:28:34.259 --> 00:28:38.900
so many. You know those five -gallon jugs of

00:28:38.900 --> 00:28:42.359
coins? I have four or five of those full of coins

00:28:42.359 --> 00:28:44.380
from the 50s, 60s. You could go on a vacation

00:28:44.380 --> 00:28:48.319
to Hawaii. Probably. Oh, I know. But I want to

00:28:48.319 --> 00:28:51.660
sit on them and wait. Yeah. Just don't lube them

00:28:51.660 --> 00:28:52.720
up and sit on them. Okay, you're not a goose.

00:28:52.859 --> 00:28:55.440
So the Morgan dollars and the Peace dollars,

00:28:55.759 --> 00:29:07.039
$38 .82 each. Damn. $3 .82 each. So Morgan dollars

00:29:07.039 --> 00:29:09.559
are still a good buy if you get them on eBay

00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:11.400
or something. Just make sure they're not scams.

00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:14.880
So yeah, that's all we're going to talk about

00:29:14.880 --> 00:29:17.619
for precious metals and rare coins and shit.

00:29:17.700 --> 00:29:22.319
But yeah, that's still pretty insane. So keep

00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:24.880
an eye on the metal currency. It's worth holding

00:29:24.880 --> 00:29:27.240
on to. So what I'm hearing is we need to put

00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:28.839
our funds together and invest in a copper mine.

00:29:30.359 --> 00:29:34.640
Yeah, copper mines, copper stock. I mean, buying

00:29:34.640 --> 00:29:37.819
copper bullion online is still fairly cheap.

00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:42.700
You can get kilo bars for not that much. And

00:29:42.700 --> 00:29:47.099
then we convince teenagers that the more copper

00:29:47.099 --> 00:29:50.539
you collect, the more women you have. There you

00:29:50.539 --> 00:29:53.559
go. Well, they're not interested in women. They're

00:29:53.559 --> 00:29:57.279
going to be interested in women bots. That's

00:29:57.279 --> 00:29:59.160
true. If you collect enough copper and silicone,

00:29:59.359 --> 00:30:01.539
you can make your own. There you go. Or trade

00:30:01.539 --> 00:30:09.180
it in for a bot. Yeah. Yes. Bot trading. So,

00:30:09.299 --> 00:30:12.220
Gibbs, did you want to take any of the next ones

00:30:12.220 --> 00:30:15.319
here? I'm sorry. I was staring at the photo.

00:30:19.059 --> 00:30:22.210
That's wild. You know what I hate? I hate that

00:30:22.210 --> 00:30:23.910
it actually has more definition in the face than

00:30:23.910 --> 00:30:28.609
the camera shows. So I look pale in comparison

00:30:28.609 --> 00:30:31.569
to the fucking photo. Oh, yeah. That's killing

00:30:31.569 --> 00:30:35.849
me. Had to get the natural skin tones in there.

00:30:36.890 --> 00:30:42.230
Oh, my God. He's licking love. Well, it's just

00:30:42.230 --> 00:30:46.490
weird. It was just weird. I think it's the eye

00:30:46.490 --> 00:30:49.920
color right, too, which is fucking weird. There

00:30:49.920 --> 00:30:52.079
you are, man. God. Although it could have given

00:30:52.079 --> 00:30:53.460
me a full head of hair. Like, that's kind of

00:30:53.460 --> 00:30:57.759
fucking rude. It gave me even less hair. Wait

00:30:57.759 --> 00:30:59.599
a minute. I'm kind of insulted. It gave me even

00:30:59.599 --> 00:31:02.420
less hair in the fucking photo. Jesus Christ.

00:31:02.420 --> 00:31:05.900
Oh, shit. I mean, you still have more hair than

00:31:05.900 --> 00:31:10.539
I do. But, you know, hey. Oh, my God. Because

00:31:10.539 --> 00:31:12.599
right now, with the light being, you can't even

00:31:12.599 --> 00:31:17.400
see what's left right here. All gone. Not even

00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:21.289
a hair club for men could save me. To be fair,

00:31:21.329 --> 00:31:24.730
you could rock bald, though. True. I've been

00:31:24.730 --> 00:31:28.690
rocking it since... Oh, man. You got the Picard

00:31:28.690 --> 00:31:37.470
going on. I think, like, 2004? Wow. Yeah. The

00:31:37.470 --> 00:31:40.730
moment I had a beautician tell me, you're losing

00:31:40.730 --> 00:31:44.950
your hair, I just shaved it off. Ouch. Mm -hmm.

00:31:47.210 --> 00:31:49.940
Right before a buddy's wedding. I was just like,

00:31:49.940 --> 00:31:57.039
yeah, it's got to go. Jesus Christ. If you want

00:31:57.039 --> 00:31:59.480
me to take the next one. Yeah, we have the paradox

00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:01.900
of peak TV. Are we watching less because there

00:32:01.900 --> 00:32:04.460
is more? Is there a lot of burnout, decision

00:32:04.460 --> 00:32:07.380
fatigue and the streaming wars? So basically,

00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:09.980
one of the topics that we've kind of discussed

00:32:09.980 --> 00:32:11.920
previously, but I know this is something that

00:32:11.920 --> 00:32:14.779
I think we're seeing even more of. I did want

00:32:14.779 --> 00:32:17.480
to reference this to the fact that I want to

00:32:17.480 --> 00:32:19.990
ask you to a question. Are the movie theaters

00:32:19.990 --> 00:32:22.890
near you guys shutting down as well? It's not

00:32:22.890 --> 00:32:24.950
shutting down, but I'm surprised it's still open.

00:32:25.609 --> 00:32:28.369
Because the big news in my area, so I'm near

00:32:28.369 --> 00:32:31.490
where the Patriots NFL team has their stadium,

00:32:31.589 --> 00:32:36.029
and there's a huge AMC big theater next to it.

00:32:36.309 --> 00:32:38.470
It's massive. It's like three floors. It has

00:32:38.470 --> 00:32:40.390
a bunch of different levels and stuff and so

00:32:40.390 --> 00:32:42.650
many different. That's closing down. Literally

00:32:42.650 --> 00:32:45.230
the biggest one in the state. Wow. That's how

00:32:45.230 --> 00:32:48.259
bad it is. I'm not surprised. But what's wild

00:32:48.259 --> 00:32:50.259
is where the Patriots, what's called Patriots

00:32:50.259 --> 00:32:53.240
Place. There's like nine or ten bars and a bunch

00:32:53.240 --> 00:32:55.319
of shops and different areas. It's in like a

00:32:55.319 --> 00:32:57.980
big kind of entertainment area. Plus, there's

00:32:57.980 --> 00:33:00.339
a big medical district in there, too. So it's

00:33:00.339 --> 00:33:01.319
like if you're ever going to have a place to

00:33:01.319 --> 00:33:03.640
have a movie theater. That's it. Thousands of

00:33:03.640 --> 00:33:05.579
people coming out and they can't even survive.

00:33:06.480 --> 00:33:09.859
So I guess I've been wondering, like, number

00:33:09.859 --> 00:33:11.819
one, what are you guys thoughts on at this point?

00:33:11.859 --> 00:33:13.920
Number one. all the different streaming options

00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:16.319
number two the fact that the movies now kind

00:33:16.319 --> 00:33:19.440
of suck and number three there's nothing like

00:33:19.440 --> 00:33:21.740
original and also what the fuck do you even choose

00:33:21.740 --> 00:33:24.079
at this point because not for nothing every single

00:33:24.079 --> 00:33:26.079
week someone tells me a show from some other

00:33:26.079 --> 00:33:28.400
streaming service i'm at a point where it's like

00:33:28.400 --> 00:33:30.859
i apparently have to buy fucking all of them

00:33:30.859 --> 00:33:35.099
and then never use them yeah well i would definitely

00:33:35.099 --> 00:33:38.019
have to say that you may not be old enough for

00:33:38.019 --> 00:33:40.500
this but it's definitely what i think is the

00:33:40.500 --> 00:33:43.279
blockbuster effect where you walk into Blockbuster,

00:33:43.400 --> 00:33:47.180
you have hundreds of choices to pick for a movie,

00:33:47.279 --> 00:33:51.740
and you walk around for an hour just perusing

00:33:51.740 --> 00:33:54.140
the videos, and you're like, I don't know what

00:33:54.140 --> 00:33:56.839
to choose. And you may even walk out of there

00:33:56.839 --> 00:34:00.079
not choosing a damn thing. I know when I sit

00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:02.519
down at my television, I end up just looking

00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:05.660
at YouTube only because of the fact that my attention

00:34:05.660 --> 00:34:09.739
span is only so long, and I don't mind just...

00:34:09.900 --> 00:34:12.300
clicking through stuff just like i was in blockbuster

00:34:12.300 --> 00:34:18.119
when i was younger oh my god and uh yeah and

00:34:18.119 --> 00:34:19.880
then with the movie theaters closing down it

00:34:19.880 --> 00:34:23.159
doesn't help that you can buy almost a 90 some

00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:26.639
inch screen display for your living room put

00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:30.119
hook up a surround sound system and be just as

00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:33.429
good as the movie yeah I was kind of annoyed

00:34:33.429 --> 00:34:35.489
that I saw ticket prices in my area. They're

00:34:35.489 --> 00:34:37.949
$15 to $20 per ticket to see a movie. Oh, I know.

00:34:38.369 --> 00:34:41.269
You're spending $50 on a movie theater. Easy.

00:34:41.449 --> 00:34:45.010
Per person. And it's like, why would I do that

00:34:45.010 --> 00:34:47.349
if I can rent the house through Amazon Prime

00:34:47.349 --> 00:34:52.550
for like $5? Or buy it for $20. Or buy the lease

00:34:52.550 --> 00:34:54.369
to be able to watch it whenever you want for

00:34:54.369 --> 00:34:59.409
$20. We'll talk about that later. To circle back

00:34:59.409 --> 00:35:01.619
on what you were saying, The shit coming out

00:35:01.619 --> 00:35:06.400
of Hollywood nowadays sucks. It doesn't justify

00:35:06.400 --> 00:35:09.360
the price of a movie ticket. Not at all. I mean,

00:35:09.420 --> 00:35:11.500
the last movie I went and saw, only because of

00:35:11.500 --> 00:35:14.000
the fact it was unrated, was The Toxic Avenger.

00:35:14.079 --> 00:35:15.639
Yeah, which I'm still trying to watch. I loved

00:35:15.639 --> 00:35:20.059
that. That was a good one. Yeah. I'll be honest.

00:35:20.239 --> 00:35:25.139
Did anyone see the more recent Hulk or Red Hulk

00:35:25.139 --> 00:35:28.559
Marvel movie? No. No. You know what's funny?

00:35:28.960 --> 00:35:31.849
I've asked that. To everyone I know. And you

00:35:31.849 --> 00:35:35.610
know what everyone has said? No. No. My buddy

00:35:35.610 --> 00:35:37.389
and I tried to watch it at his house, and we

00:35:37.389 --> 00:35:39.190
thought we got ripped off for spending $5 to

00:35:39.190 --> 00:35:41.969
watch it. I was sitting there thinking, wow,

00:35:42.110 --> 00:35:46.349
$5, and I still got screwed over. And the sad

00:35:46.349 --> 00:35:48.130
part is that was supposed to be a big movie for

00:35:48.130 --> 00:35:52.030
the year. Even I heard Fantastic Four wasn't

00:35:52.030 --> 00:35:55.210
that good. I don't know. I enjoyed that one.

00:35:55.389 --> 00:35:59.510
It was pushed, and it flopped. The newest Tron.

00:36:00.340 --> 00:36:05.019
pushed all to hell, flopped so hard. They're

00:36:05.019 --> 00:36:07.480
going to lose $130 million on that one because

00:36:07.480 --> 00:36:11.539
they're pulling it out of theaters early. We

00:36:11.539 --> 00:36:16.199
talked about the decline of the entertainment

00:36:16.199 --> 00:36:21.119
industry. They're running out of ideas. Some

00:36:21.119 --> 00:36:24.719
of it's not even running out of ideas. It's the

00:36:24.719 --> 00:36:26.599
fact that they want to sit there and push all

00:36:26.599 --> 00:36:29.139
these agendas. Just tell the freaking story.

00:36:29.530 --> 00:36:32.210
I don't care if it's a white character. It's

00:36:32.210 --> 00:36:34.670
a white character. It's a black character. Put

00:36:34.670 --> 00:36:37.190
a black person in there. That's it. Don't sit

00:36:37.190 --> 00:36:39.849
there and whitewash or blackwash or Asian wash

00:36:39.849 --> 00:36:42.449
whatever the character is. Don't put somebody

00:36:42.449 --> 00:36:45.449
into a position that doesn't need to be there.

00:36:45.570 --> 00:36:49.210
That doesn't need to be there. I mean, the latest

00:36:49.210 --> 00:36:52.630
Harry Potter series that's coming out and they're

00:36:52.630 --> 00:36:56.590
putting a gentleman that is obviously a very

00:36:56.590 --> 00:36:59.670
good actor. However, for that part, the way the

00:36:59.670 --> 00:37:02.750
story is written, you mean to tell me Harry Potter's

00:37:02.750 --> 00:37:06.269
father is now going to be picking on a black

00:37:06.269 --> 00:37:11.409
person? That is so bad. That's against his character

00:37:11.409 --> 00:37:14.190
that's written in the original books. Exactly.

00:37:14.510 --> 00:37:18.989
So that one's going to fail. Yeah. And everybody's

00:37:18.989 --> 00:37:21.710
sitting like, we don't understand. No. You've

00:37:21.710 --> 00:37:24.489
removed yourself from the idea that maybe you

00:37:24.489 --> 00:37:26.840
should think about what the characters... are

00:37:26.840 --> 00:37:30.119
doing and why certain parts are the way they

00:37:30.119 --> 00:37:32.920
are if you don't like it well then guess what

00:37:32.920 --> 00:37:36.380
move on to a different project i mean it's stupid

00:37:36.380 --> 00:37:39.380
they got mad at all these movies from like the

00:37:39.380 --> 00:37:41.679
early eras where you know you had a white man

00:37:41.679 --> 00:37:44.300
playing a chinese character or a japanese character

00:37:44.300 --> 00:37:47.340
okay i can understand you'd be pissed because

00:37:47.340 --> 00:37:51.780
that's racist but at the same time these days

00:37:51.780 --> 00:37:54.599
we because we're more supposed to be more progressive

00:37:55.420 --> 00:37:57.579
You don't take a black person and put them into

00:37:57.579 --> 00:38:01.019
a white person's character. That makes no damn

00:38:01.019 --> 00:38:04.000
sense. Or vice versa. They did that with that

00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:06.039
movie, Vice Versa. Look how that turned out.

00:38:07.579 --> 00:38:09.860
Well, I don't know. I thought that was funny.

00:38:10.639 --> 00:38:12.780
That was intentional, but that was making fun

00:38:12.780 --> 00:38:15.400
of that whole idea. I know. That was a joke.

00:38:16.760 --> 00:38:20.280
It's like, has anyone watched the more recent

00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:23.059
Lord of the Rings TV show that was on Amazon

00:38:23.059 --> 00:38:27.059
Prime? I did not. Are you talking about the animation

00:38:27.059 --> 00:38:29.719
one? No, no, the live action one that was done

00:38:29.719 --> 00:38:32.280
like a year or two. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So

00:38:32.280 --> 00:38:36.219
if anyone wants to see something like that showed

00:38:36.219 --> 00:38:39.260
100 % to the extent, watch that. And you'll see

00:38:39.260 --> 00:38:41.800
it goes against almost everything J .R .R. Tolkien

00:38:41.800 --> 00:38:45.019
made in that universe. It made it very political,

00:38:45.360 --> 00:38:49.119
very, you know, one -sided politically. And it

00:38:49.119 --> 00:38:52.559
failed as a story. It didn't tell a good story.

00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:54.679
It was just it got so lost in selling a point

00:38:54.679 --> 00:38:56.920
that they're there to sell the politics, not

00:38:56.920 --> 00:39:00.579
the story. And I think, unfortunately, the phrase

00:39:00.579 --> 00:39:03.059
I hate to bring it up, but go woke, go broke.

00:39:03.880 --> 00:39:06.440
Unfortunately, it has been proven time and time

00:39:06.440 --> 00:39:09.679
again. If you just tell a good story, that's

00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:12.400
all people are asking for. And I hear this from

00:39:12.400 --> 00:39:14.019
people on all sides of political spectrum, even

00:39:14.019 --> 00:39:16.139
people I know that are very on the woke kind

00:39:16.139 --> 00:39:18.360
of progressive side. It's like we just want to

00:39:18.360 --> 00:39:20.969
have fun. Why is it that movies can't be fun

00:39:20.969 --> 00:39:23.230
anymore? Why can't they just be funny? The last

00:39:23.230 --> 00:39:24.909
good movie I saw was Hitman's Bodyguard, and

00:39:24.909 --> 00:39:27.170
that was like three years ago. Oh, yeah. Hitman's

00:39:27.170 --> 00:39:31.070
Bodyguard's wife. That one was good, too. Yes.

00:39:31.329 --> 00:39:33.449
That was a great movie. That was amazing. There

00:39:33.449 --> 00:39:35.190
was no politics, no nothing. It was just fun.

00:39:36.730 --> 00:39:39.170
I will say, I like Playdate. That one was good,

00:39:39.210 --> 00:39:42.989
too. I haven't seen that one. I will say that

00:39:42.989 --> 00:39:47.309
as far as the movies themselves go, we are...

00:39:47.670 --> 00:39:51.429
Not that far away, probably maybe three years,

00:39:51.469 --> 00:39:57.010
five years tops. Excuse me. From having AI being

00:39:57.010 --> 00:40:01.289
able to take a book and fully render a video

00:40:01.289 --> 00:40:04.489
that is book accurate into a movie for you within

00:40:04.489 --> 00:40:07.750
a day, possibly even a few hours. So you can

00:40:07.750 --> 00:40:10.650
take a book, submit it to the AI engine, go to

00:40:10.650 --> 00:40:14.309
work. And when you come home, it's ready for

00:40:14.309 --> 00:40:17.739
you. And it will be book accurate or book accurate,

00:40:17.840 --> 00:40:23.599
ready for you to watch and done. Customized for

00:40:23.599 --> 00:40:26.099
you. That's going to take us into a whole new

00:40:26.099 --> 00:40:30.059
realm of media because then you can even have

00:40:30.059 --> 00:40:34.699
edited versions that you have customized. And

00:40:34.699 --> 00:40:36.420
then you can send those out to the world and

00:40:36.420 --> 00:40:40.539
say, hey, here's this spin on it. Those could

00:40:40.539 --> 00:40:44.730
even be done like NFTs. i know that's like somebody

00:40:44.730 --> 00:40:47.889
taking the um what movie was that with chris

00:40:47.889 --> 00:40:49.929
pratt where he was stuck on the ship by himself

00:40:49.929 --> 00:40:52.510
and everybody else was in hyper sleep passengers

00:40:52.510 --> 00:40:55.349
that's it and they recut it to where it was a

00:40:55.349 --> 00:40:58.789
horror movie instead and it was from the other

00:40:58.789 --> 00:41:03.250
characters perspective yeah which i think would

00:41:03.250 --> 00:41:06.440
be a a good watch honestly yeah it's going to

00:41:06.440 --> 00:41:07.760
be the case of eventually what's going to happen

00:41:07.760 --> 00:41:09.679
it's going to be an ai exchange where essentially

00:41:09.679 --> 00:41:13.320
between music videos and movies and tv shows

00:41:13.320 --> 00:41:15.739
especially it's going to be reruns of old tv

00:41:15.739 --> 00:41:18.000
shows it'll be reimagined re -edited or updated

00:41:18.000 --> 00:41:21.280
or making sequels or prequels whatever it's eventually

00:41:21.280 --> 00:41:23.940
going to be for example for someone like me that

00:41:23.940 --> 00:41:26.420
i think all three of us agree avatar the last

00:41:26.420 --> 00:41:28.340
merry bender the original tv show is probably

00:41:28.340 --> 00:41:30.619
one of the best you know animated tv shows of

00:41:30.619 --> 00:41:33.559
all time uh -huh it was amazing for those of

00:41:33.559 --> 00:41:35.760
us that are like I wonder what happened afterwards.

00:41:35.960 --> 00:41:38.199
We'll be able to make our own and make it make

00:41:38.199 --> 00:41:41.360
sense. And especially all those people on Reddit

00:41:41.360 --> 00:41:43.960
and online and 4chan or whatever that make the

00:41:43.960 --> 00:41:46.440
sequels and write all the stuff, they're going

00:41:46.440 --> 00:41:49.260
to go nuts with it. The problem is going to be

00:41:49.260 --> 00:41:51.099
there's no such thing as canon because it's going

00:41:51.099 --> 00:41:53.639
to be in the Pip universe or in the Gibbles universe

00:41:53.639 --> 00:41:56.699
or in the Gibbs universe or whatever. And it's

00:41:56.699 --> 00:41:59.039
going to be wild, but what's going to be interesting

00:41:59.039 --> 00:42:02.940
is I think... Filmmaking for a long time has

00:42:02.940 --> 00:42:07.179
been not like a niche thing, where really to

00:42:07.179 --> 00:42:09.460
be a good filmmaker, you have to kind of have

00:42:09.460 --> 00:42:12.000
a very special skill set. Now it's going to be

00:42:12.000 --> 00:42:13.800
whoever has access to the resources, they can

00:42:13.800 --> 00:42:15.760
make whatever they want, which is good for creativity

00:42:15.760 --> 00:42:19.039
in a lot of ways, because that's to do a bit

00:42:19.039 --> 00:42:21.360
of a parallel. Right now in the music world,

00:42:21.400 --> 00:42:24.500
we're at a point to where I can at home, just

00:42:24.500 --> 00:42:27.900
in my regular studio here, make records that

00:42:27.900 --> 00:42:31.679
sound... very, very, very damn near close to

00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:33.420
what people produce in professional million dollar

00:42:33.420 --> 00:42:37.639
studios with the right software. Eventually movies

00:42:37.639 --> 00:42:39.960
and TV shows are going to go the same way as

00:42:39.960 --> 00:42:41.960
it is. I've already seen spinoffs of TV shows

00:42:41.960 --> 00:42:44.099
for like small episodes that AI is already doing

00:42:44.099 --> 00:42:46.880
and they're fucking hilarious. I watched one

00:42:46.880 --> 00:42:48.179
the other day. It was like a five minute episode

00:42:48.179 --> 00:42:51.019
of if the Avengers were an 80 sitcom movie and

00:42:51.019 --> 00:42:53.360
I'll be honest with you. It was hilarious. I

00:42:53.360 --> 00:42:55.119
actually had a good time with it. Somebody spent

00:42:55.119 --> 00:42:57.820
some real effort into it, but imagine very soon.

00:42:58.599 --> 00:43:01.340
You'll be able to change everything. Yeah. As

00:43:01.340 --> 00:43:06.179
it stands right now, we have the technology and

00:43:06.179 --> 00:43:13.300
the capacity to do short films via AI, like as

00:43:13.300 --> 00:43:17.199
it is. So people who are good at writing prompts

00:43:17.199 --> 00:43:21.119
and editing prompts and generating content off

00:43:21.119 --> 00:43:24.800
of other content can already do short films.

00:43:26.510 --> 00:43:30.070
upwards of 15 to 30 minutes. So if you're a good

00:43:30.070 --> 00:43:33.289
storyteller and you can write a good story that

00:43:33.289 --> 00:43:37.849
can be translated into an AI prompt universe,

00:43:38.090 --> 00:43:42.329
essentially, you can very quickly give a Hollywood

00:43:42.329 --> 00:43:48.179
studio a huge run for their money. without having

00:43:48.179 --> 00:43:50.719
to spend all the resources and pay the actors

00:43:50.719 --> 00:43:53.760
because AI is going to do it for you. Give it

00:43:53.760 --> 00:43:55.719
another couple of years and it's going to be

00:43:55.719 --> 00:43:59.920
a full -on AI versus real actors war. Like the

00:43:59.920 --> 00:44:02.719
writer's strike that we had, it's going to be

00:44:02.719 --> 00:44:05.340
the actor's strike because the AI is going to

00:44:05.340 --> 00:44:07.579
be replacing the actors. They've already had

00:44:07.579 --> 00:44:10.860
that written into their contracts. But AI can

00:44:10.860 --> 00:44:13.730
just create people. Did you both know? This is

00:44:13.730 --> 00:44:15.929
something I didn't want to say before the podcast.

00:44:16.369 --> 00:44:19.329
Did you both know that on Spotify for a few days,

00:44:19.550 --> 00:44:22.969
the top artist was a full AI artist? Yes, I saw

00:44:22.969 --> 00:44:27.949
that. I heard about that. Yeah. No, I was going

00:44:27.949 --> 00:44:30.889
to say the other issue you're running into is

00:44:30.889 --> 00:44:36.190
audiobooks. The series I've been listening to

00:44:36.190 --> 00:44:39.750
now for a while is Dungeon Crawler Carl. The

00:44:39.750 --> 00:44:43.880
narrators. They've done an amazing job. One narrator,

00:44:44.079 --> 00:44:46.139
he does so many different voices. It's amazing.

00:44:46.619 --> 00:44:50.139
You can go online, and if it's not on Audible,

00:44:50.300 --> 00:44:54.440
you go to Spotify, a bunch of other sites, and

00:44:54.440 --> 00:44:58.280
it's AI -generated narration. And it's being

00:44:58.280 --> 00:45:02.400
sold like it's the actual official one. So that's

00:45:02.400 --> 00:45:06.860
just another spin where AI is being utilized

00:45:06.860 --> 00:45:14.340
to take over. artists you know format the only

00:45:14.340 --> 00:45:18.639
thing i will i will add is i am seeing some people

00:45:18.639 --> 00:45:21.900
using ai for really cool tools though so one

00:45:21.900 --> 00:45:23.619
of the things i did see so there's this app called

00:45:23.619 --> 00:45:26.500
suno where basically you can use it to create

00:45:26.500 --> 00:45:30.079
music or media what i've been using it for which

00:45:30.079 --> 00:45:32.039
i find interesting is i will record let's just

00:45:32.039 --> 00:45:34.519
say a guitar part make sure it's obviously time

00:45:34.519 --> 00:45:36.400
aligned and then i'll send it to suno and say

00:45:36.400 --> 00:45:38.380
hey write a cool drum part for it i'll just have

00:45:38.380 --> 00:45:41.190
it regenerate And give me ideas. And I say, oh,

00:45:41.289 --> 00:45:43.349
I like that. Then I hop on the drums and I'll

00:45:43.349 --> 00:45:45.409
play my version of it. So I use it almost like

00:45:45.409 --> 00:45:48.670
a writing tool. And I think maybe the way to

00:45:48.670 --> 00:45:53.070
look at it is if you use AI in conjunction or

00:45:53.070 --> 00:45:56.070
maybe to springboard an idea for many things,

00:45:56.230 --> 00:45:57.769
it can be cool. Like, for example, if you're

00:45:57.769 --> 00:46:00.309
using it for making a movie, sometimes it could

00:46:00.309 --> 00:46:03.369
be, hey, we can AI out almost 80, 90 percent

00:46:03.369 --> 00:46:05.510
of the movie before we even shoot it. That way

00:46:05.510 --> 00:46:07.389
we can make sure everything makes sense. It looks

00:46:07.389 --> 00:46:09.690
good. And you use that as a template. Then you

00:46:09.690 --> 00:46:11.869
actually shoot it and make it in real time. What

00:46:11.869 --> 00:46:14.789
I wonder is, is the movie industry going to change

00:46:14.789 --> 00:46:16.289
to where people are going to submit movies that

00:46:16.289 --> 00:46:18.570
are AI made and they'll spend a few thousand

00:46:18.570 --> 00:46:20.889
dollars, maybe $10 ,000 on the AI software to

00:46:20.889 --> 00:46:23.829
make it. And then that's their pitch saying,

00:46:23.989 --> 00:46:26.269
Hey, this isn't a proper movie. It's an AI one,

00:46:26.349 --> 00:46:28.730
but this is how I want it to be. This will make

00:46:28.730 --> 00:46:30.650
the storyline make sense. Here's the script.

00:46:30.969 --> 00:46:33.579
This is the gist of it. And then they go. actually

00:46:33.579 --> 00:46:36.179
make it if we switch to that kind of system i

00:46:36.179 --> 00:46:38.380
think that would give so many people an advantage

00:46:38.380 --> 00:46:41.760
to be able to make good consistent and coherent

00:46:41.760 --> 00:46:44.539
movies but then still be able to employ people

00:46:44.539 --> 00:46:47.340
to make them so it all depends on how you use

00:46:47.340 --> 00:46:49.659
it really it just you know just like anything

00:46:49.659 --> 00:46:52.619
else yeah i think it more like you know okay

00:46:52.619 --> 00:46:56.159
you have factory made bread and you have artisan

00:46:56.159 --> 00:47:01.429
you know you ai okay you know it's not bad it

00:47:01.429 --> 00:47:05.349
works or artisan it's human made you know what

00:47:05.349 --> 00:47:07.550
you prefer you get hollywood movies and artist

00:47:07.550 --> 00:47:10.429
movies and yeah you know what's gonna be interesting

00:47:10.429 --> 00:47:12.070
though i wonder if the amount of really shit

00:47:12.070 --> 00:47:14.389
hollywood actors and actresses that they keep

00:47:14.389 --> 00:47:16.929
being employed just because they're around how

00:47:16.929 --> 00:47:18.469
many of them are going to be replaced by ai because

00:47:18.469 --> 00:47:21.050
i don't want to fucking deal with them right

00:47:21.050 --> 00:47:24.309
yeah you know you don't have to convince ai to

00:47:24.309 --> 00:47:26.730
do a sex scene whereas you have to do you know

00:47:26.730 --> 00:47:30.969
have you know All that stuff for an actress and

00:47:30.969 --> 00:47:33.809
actor to keep everything safe. Everybody feels

00:47:33.809 --> 00:47:37.010
comfortable. You just tell the AI actors. Yeah,

00:47:37.150 --> 00:47:40.409
exactly. Whereas AI actress and actor, you just

00:47:40.409 --> 00:47:42.710
tell them, do whatever. And you don't have to

00:47:42.710 --> 00:47:44.510
worry about anybody complaining. But that's the

00:47:44.510 --> 00:47:45.989
thing is, I wonder how many scenes they won't

00:47:45.989 --> 00:47:48.230
even need actors to be there for. They'll just

00:47:48.230 --> 00:47:51.949
do the talking parts and some of the action sequences.

00:47:52.090 --> 00:47:54.210
Then they'll leave. And the other half of the

00:47:54.210 --> 00:47:55.869
movie will be all AI. And at one point, you'll

00:47:55.869 --> 00:48:02.420
never know. Yep. Yeah. It's almost there. Almost.

00:48:03.360 --> 00:48:06.539
Yeah. It's that extra pinky that really does

00:48:06.539 --> 00:48:10.480
it for me. Oh, yeah. When they grip a hold of

00:48:10.480 --> 00:48:12.920
things and there's that extra little grab on

00:48:12.920 --> 00:48:15.320
thing, you know. Gibles. Oh, yeah. Another hand

00:48:15.320 --> 00:48:19.739
comes in. Well, let's skip the next one. We'll

00:48:19.739 --> 00:48:22.960
come back to it. Gibles, if you want to take,

00:48:23.000 --> 00:48:29.300
we'll just segue into this topic here. Which

00:48:29.300 --> 00:48:33.320
one you point at? Page three, top of page three.

00:48:34.559 --> 00:48:39.400
Oh, top of page three. Oh, really? That's the

00:48:39.400 --> 00:48:43.219
one I got to talk about. Well, we're going to

00:48:43.219 --> 00:48:46.219
segue back into the one above it after this because

00:48:46.219 --> 00:48:50.780
we're going to stick with this kind of loop.

00:48:51.599 --> 00:48:53.659
I was getting ready to say, I'm like, man, the

00:48:53.659 --> 00:48:57.349
way that reads, it's like. And now Gibbles gets

00:48:57.349 --> 00:48:59.909
to come in with the boring shit. Oh, no, no,

00:48:59.989 --> 00:49:05.010
no, no, no, no. And I'm Walter Cronkite. And

00:49:05.010 --> 00:49:07.929
we're going to talk about the economy. That's

00:49:07.929 --> 00:49:12.869
it. Yeah. Yeah. So is everything a trailer now?

00:49:13.050 --> 00:49:17.289
You know, all these Marvel Cinematic Universe

00:49:17.289 --> 00:49:23.949
movies, you know, before Endgame. You know, you

00:49:23.949 --> 00:49:25.969
had your prequels and sequels and stuff. Not

00:49:25.969 --> 00:49:28.210
bad because of the fact that I think because

00:49:28.210 --> 00:49:32.150
they followed the movies or comics. Wow, I think

00:49:32.150 --> 00:49:35.809
I've drank too much. Go figure. You know, they're

00:49:35.809 --> 00:49:38.750
following the comics. But then after Endgame,

00:49:38.849 --> 00:49:43.250
I felt like we're doing the whole DEI and we're

00:49:43.250 --> 00:49:47.170
putting in the woke and we're setting the agenda

00:49:47.170 --> 00:49:50.719
and everything just kind of went to crap. Yeah.

00:49:50.760 --> 00:49:55.820
Let me interject here. Does anybody else, and

00:49:55.820 --> 00:50:00.219
all the people listening too, when they finished

00:50:00.219 --> 00:50:03.599
the Marvel Endgame movies, who else felt like

00:50:03.599 --> 00:50:06.780
that was just like a hard nosedive for Hollywood?

00:50:07.280 --> 00:50:10.440
And they were like, this is peak movie. We can

00:50:10.440 --> 00:50:13.179
never, ever top this again. So now everything

00:50:13.179 --> 00:50:16.869
we make after this point will just suck. that

00:50:16.869 --> 00:50:19.449
the problem is you had covid that literally happened

00:50:19.449 --> 00:50:22.230
right after it and then it stunted everything

00:50:22.230 --> 00:50:24.969
else afterwards but that should have been a time

00:50:24.969 --> 00:50:28.010
for the writers to turn around take the time

00:50:28.010 --> 00:50:31.030
they had to social distance and stay inside for

00:50:31.030 --> 00:50:33.849
that two weeks that was 800 weeks to flatten

00:50:33.849 --> 00:50:36.849
the curve and just write and create and do everything

00:50:36.849 --> 00:50:39.030
that they could have done but here's the thing

00:50:39.030 --> 00:50:41.190
you're thinking of it as a positive they thought

00:50:41.190 --> 00:50:44.349
about it as we got to make money now so the thing

00:50:44.349 --> 00:50:47.519
is What you're looking at is correct. They should

00:50:47.519 --> 00:50:49.780
have spent the time and said, hey, if while we're

00:50:49.780 --> 00:50:52.659
locked down anyway, let's refine. Let's look

00:50:52.659 --> 00:50:55.000
over this stuff long term. You know, sure, we're

00:50:55.000 --> 00:50:56.139
not going to make as much money in the short

00:50:56.139 --> 00:50:58.940
term, but let's maximize our royalties, maximize

00:50:58.940 --> 00:51:00.880
our money we got from these movies. Let's keep

00:51:00.880 --> 00:51:03.059
merchandise going and everything else. Keep teasers

00:51:03.059 --> 00:51:05.340
and ask everybody what they want, because quite

00:51:05.340 --> 00:51:06.719
frankly, everybody's stuck at home. We can't

00:51:06.719 --> 00:51:09.929
do anything anyway. But instead, they said, quick,

00:51:10.150 --> 00:51:12.750
let's get the slop out there now because everybody's

00:51:12.750 --> 00:51:14.230
stuck at home. So they're going to watch it whether

00:51:14.230 --> 00:51:17.849
they want to or not. Yeah. So Hollywood failed

00:51:17.849 --> 00:51:20.670
massively in that time frame during COVID. But

00:51:20.670 --> 00:51:25.510
Pornhub skyrocketed, which was a given. Well,

00:51:25.630 --> 00:51:28.150
here's a good thing you can think about, too.

00:51:28.650 --> 00:51:31.849
It's almost the same way when you had Zack Snyder

00:51:31.849 --> 00:51:35.550
making Justice League. Sadly, he had to leave

00:51:35.550 --> 00:51:38.570
for personal reasons. You know, the family emergency,

00:51:38.869 --> 00:51:42.570
everything, God forbid. But then you brought

00:51:42.570 --> 00:51:45.610
in somebody from Marvel Universe to take the

00:51:45.610 --> 00:51:49.550
movie and finish it. And instead of just taking

00:51:49.550 --> 00:51:53.010
what was done and just running with it and get

00:51:53.010 --> 00:51:57.130
it done, this jackass goes and decides, no, I

00:51:57.130 --> 00:52:00.050
know better than Zack Snyder. I know better than

00:52:00.050 --> 00:52:02.449
everyone else. And I'm going to take DC Comics,

00:52:02.590 --> 00:52:05.150
which are normally edgier and darker in content

00:52:05.150 --> 00:52:08.340
anyways. and I'm going to make it bright and

00:52:08.340 --> 00:52:11.099
fuzzy, and everybody's happy, and we're going

00:52:11.099 --> 00:52:15.500
to get the happy ending right away. And just

00:52:15.500 --> 00:52:17.880
go that way, and then watch how fast that shit

00:52:17.880 --> 00:52:23.019
flopped. Brightburn was a movie that was done,

00:52:23.139 --> 00:52:27.739
if you guys saw that one, young Superman as a

00:52:27.739 --> 00:52:31.260
child or a teenager. Yeah, it turns out to be

00:52:31.260 --> 00:52:33.400
the villain. Turns out, yeah, it's like the bizarro

00:52:33.400 --> 00:52:38.070
line of Superman. he he realizes that he's a

00:52:38.070 --> 00:52:40.650
sociopath and just doesn't care he will kill

00:52:40.650 --> 00:52:43.489
whoever he wants to because we're the weak ones

00:52:43.489 --> 00:52:47.630
yeah i wish to hell they would be able to get

00:52:47.630 --> 00:52:49.670
the other half of the rights to that movie franchise

00:52:49.670 --> 00:52:52.269
and continue down that line because oh my god

00:52:52.269 --> 00:52:55.949
if you've not watched bright burn i highly i

00:52:55.949 --> 00:52:58.869
cannot recommend that movie enough and i'm not

00:52:58.869 --> 00:53:03.239
like a huge dc fan but fuck that movie was good

00:53:03.239 --> 00:53:06.079
it was gory and violent as shit in some scenes

00:53:06.079 --> 00:53:11.000
pleasingly violent even that and it wasn't like

00:53:11.000 --> 00:53:14.099
yeah well it wasn't even like out of place the

00:53:14.099 --> 00:53:18.159
way they did it no totally appropriate well well

00:53:18.159 --> 00:53:21.159
within the character bounds well it's but it's

00:53:21.159 --> 00:53:24.039
one of those things you need to what that i thought

00:53:24.039 --> 00:53:26.320
the boys had proved this three or four years

00:53:26.320 --> 00:53:28.300
ago when they first came out dude the boys is

00:53:28.300 --> 00:53:30.909
awesome The boys on Amazon Prime, I really feel,

00:53:30.969 --> 00:53:34.010
accept the new standard for superhero. And the

00:53:34.010 --> 00:53:36.969
thing is, Marvel was smart. They have their niche,

00:53:37.190 --> 00:53:39.889
which is good. Yeah. Which is great. They're

00:53:39.889 --> 00:53:41.329
staying within it. Granted, they've had a few

00:53:41.329 --> 00:53:42.710
movies that have sucked, but I feel like some

00:53:42.710 --> 00:53:47.750
of the more recent ones. Journals. Oh, man. They

00:53:47.750 --> 00:53:49.630
could have done so much better with that one.

00:53:49.730 --> 00:53:53.090
Dude, like, what mixture of drugs and bullshit?

00:53:53.820 --> 00:53:56.500
was happening with that movie because at the

00:53:56.500 --> 00:53:58.840
end of it the only good thing about it is they

00:53:58.840 --> 00:54:02.820
introduced um what's his name the big guy um

00:54:02.820 --> 00:54:06.000
galactus galactic thank you i thought it was

00:54:06.000 --> 00:54:07.639
the other one is it galactus or is it the other

00:54:07.639 --> 00:54:10.780
one that has the six eyes on the fucking oh you're

00:54:10.780 --> 00:54:15.590
talking about the celestial so yes yes yes That

00:54:15.590 --> 00:54:17.110
was the only good part. Also, I will say that

00:54:17.110 --> 00:54:18.610
led into Moon Knight, which is a great fucking

00:54:18.610 --> 00:54:20.829
series. I recommend watching it. Yes, it actually

00:54:20.829 --> 00:54:23.909
was. That was one right along with Loki. That

00:54:23.909 --> 00:54:26.530
was good, too. Loki was solid. But that was because

00:54:26.530 --> 00:54:28.570
they learned from the mistakes of these other

00:54:28.570 --> 00:54:31.110
shows and the movies, which is good. I'm glad.

00:54:31.630 --> 00:54:35.909
But quite frankly, a lot of movies are looking

00:54:35.909 --> 00:54:38.969
for a more adult audience. And a lot of kids

00:54:38.969 --> 00:54:41.989
aren't watching movies as much or TV shows. That's

00:54:41.989 --> 00:54:44.670
really YouTube dominates. the like basically

00:54:44.670 --> 00:54:48.130
under 25 crowd on 24 crowd by a factor of like

00:54:48.130 --> 00:54:50.389
a thousand to one it's not even close youtube

00:54:50.389 --> 00:54:53.090
and tick tock but it's yeah but it's the same

00:54:53.090 --> 00:54:55.550
theme every single time with all the ones that

00:54:55.550 --> 00:54:58.070
we keep saying like this was good this was good

00:54:58.070 --> 00:55:01.150
they did well because they were telling the story

00:55:01.150 --> 00:55:04.369
they didn't care who they were putting into the

00:55:04.369 --> 00:55:07.909
movie or what you know the message was they were

00:55:07.909 --> 00:55:10.750
telling the story yeah that's why they did well

00:55:13.119 --> 00:55:17.920
Yep. Yeah, so you asked, is everything just a

00:55:17.920 --> 00:55:20.480
trailer now? It seems like most movies that come

00:55:20.480 --> 00:55:23.119
out, they show the whole movie in the trailer,

00:55:23.239 --> 00:55:27.260
and that's like all the best parts. I'm trying

00:55:27.260 --> 00:55:30.800
to remember what movie it was. There was a movie

00:55:30.800 --> 00:55:32.699
that they had a trailer for that once they were

00:55:32.699 --> 00:55:34.280
done with the trailer, you didn't have to watch

00:55:34.280 --> 00:55:36.539
the movie. You know what? I got to jump in my

00:55:36.539 --> 00:55:39.739
soapbox. As much as I loved it, the Formula One

00:55:39.739 --> 00:55:43.230
movie. If you watch the full trailer for it,

00:55:43.269 --> 00:55:46.230
you already know the goddamn story. And as someone

00:55:46.230 --> 00:55:48.630
that's an avid Formula One fan, I was pissed.

00:55:49.570 --> 00:55:52.849
Because they should not have showed as much as

00:55:52.849 --> 00:55:55.789
they did. So it drove me nuts because I was like,

00:55:55.789 --> 00:55:57.570
great, I know what the fuck's going to happen.

00:55:57.789 --> 00:56:00.230
Like for 90 % of it. But I've seen this with

00:56:00.230 --> 00:56:01.610
so many movies, you're 100 % right, and I never

00:56:01.610 --> 00:56:03.530
thought about that before. But they give way

00:56:03.530 --> 00:56:05.389
too much away in the trailer. Way too much. Yeah.

00:56:05.869 --> 00:56:08.329
When I walk away from a movie trailer and I'm

00:56:08.329 --> 00:56:11.079
like... It looks interesting, but I have no freaking

00:56:11.079 --> 00:56:14.619
idea what happened or what it's about. That's

00:56:14.619 --> 00:56:17.239
what I like. Cause then it makes me go, you know,

00:56:17.260 --> 00:56:20.420
should I watch this? You know, I'm interested

00:56:20.420 --> 00:56:23.460
in it, but I have no fucking idea what they were

00:56:23.460 --> 00:56:26.619
saying, but yeah, why not? Let's go watch it.

00:56:26.639 --> 00:56:28.460
You know, now that you mention it, I feel like

00:56:28.460 --> 00:56:30.460
movie trailers used to be 20 or 30 seconds, but

00:56:30.460 --> 00:56:32.530
now they're like two or three minutes. yeah they

00:56:32.530 --> 00:56:35.469
are like they use somebody if somebody in chat

00:56:35.469 --> 00:56:37.949
can do a study and see what was the average movie

00:56:37.949 --> 00:56:40.449
trailer time like 20 years ago versus now i bet

00:56:40.449 --> 00:56:42.210
you to go from like 30 seconds to two minutes

00:56:42.210 --> 00:56:45.309
yeah and that's the trailer trailers used to

00:56:45.309 --> 00:56:49.389
be uh clips of only the first 30 minutes of the

00:56:49.389 --> 00:56:53.610
movie they might show something in like the last

00:56:53.610 --> 00:56:57.030
half hour or the last 45 minutes but they would

00:56:57.030 --> 00:57:00.820
never show anything in like the last half hour

00:57:00.820 --> 00:57:04.579
or or 20 minutes like none of the climax stuff

00:57:04.579 --> 00:57:08.599
but you're seeing climax act uh stuff in trailers

00:57:08.599 --> 00:57:11.699
now i think even with deadpool like the most

00:57:11.699 --> 00:57:13.260
recent deadpool movie there were a lot of scenes

00:57:13.260 --> 00:57:14.659
at the end of the movie that were in the trailer

00:57:14.659 --> 00:57:21.019
yes i'm thinking about it yeah yeah yeah uh so

00:57:21.019 --> 00:57:25.599
according to what i'm seeing most movie trailers

00:57:26.679 --> 00:57:30.880
were generally increasing from a low in the 1980s,

00:57:30.880 --> 00:57:33.840
but still typically around two and a half minutes.

00:57:34.300 --> 00:57:36.579
The average might have been slightly longer in

00:57:36.579 --> 00:57:41.820
the 90s than today, but now you're seeing it

00:57:41.820 --> 00:57:45.679
stabilize above two minutes. You're not going

00:57:45.679 --> 00:57:48.579
to find it unless it's one of those, oh, this

00:57:48.579 --> 00:57:52.139
is the teaser trailer for the trailer. You're

00:57:52.139 --> 00:57:54.119
not going to find a movie trailer under two minutes.

00:57:55.820 --> 00:57:58.719
Are we differentiating because you've got commercials

00:57:58.719 --> 00:58:02.079
as trailers or trailers that are commercials

00:58:02.079 --> 00:58:06.139
like back in the old day of TV when we had commercials

00:58:06.139 --> 00:58:08.519
during the shows and you'd see the trailer pop

00:58:08.519 --> 00:58:11.760
up and the actual trailer trailer that you'd

00:58:11.760 --> 00:58:14.599
see at the beginning of the movie before the

00:58:14.599 --> 00:58:16.340
movie started and you'd get there 20 minutes

00:58:16.340 --> 00:58:19.800
early so you could see the trailers. Well, here's

00:58:19.800 --> 00:58:21.960
the thing. Like you have the television shows

00:58:21.960 --> 00:58:25.920
or the television commercials. where you get,

00:58:25.980 --> 00:58:30.159
like, a 10 -second blip of, hey, like, you know,

00:58:30.179 --> 00:58:33.239
endgame. Okay, here's Tony Stark, here's, you

00:58:33.239 --> 00:58:35.780
know, a couple other Avengers. Hey, Thor slams

00:58:35.780 --> 00:58:38.519
down, and he's got Groot next to him, and boom,

00:58:38.679 --> 00:58:42.260
Avengers endgame. You know, versus you get the

00:58:42.260 --> 00:58:45.659
trailer where you almost get the whole story,

00:58:45.739 --> 00:58:48.179
and you're watching it because, you know, you

00:58:48.179 --> 00:58:51.719
get what I call, you know, the special effects

00:58:51.719 --> 00:58:55.210
porn. Oh, yeah. You're watching it for the special

00:58:55.210 --> 00:58:56.849
effects. You're not watching it for the story.

00:58:57.309 --> 00:58:59.650
You have certain movies that are like that. You

00:58:59.650 --> 00:59:03.809
know going in, the story sucks. But you want

00:59:03.809 --> 00:59:06.289
to watch it for the special effects. I have two

00:59:06.289 --> 00:59:07.969
observations. One from something you just said

00:59:07.969 --> 00:59:10.110
that I did not realize. When you were talking

00:59:10.110 --> 00:59:12.369
about differentiating between the TV shows and

00:59:12.369 --> 00:59:14.969
commercials, particularly with the trailer, what

00:59:14.969 --> 00:59:17.130
I did not factor in is nowadays, who the fuck

00:59:17.130 --> 00:59:20.530
watches TV? everybody sees commercials that are

00:59:20.530 --> 00:59:22.190
two or three minutes because they're either on

00:59:22.190 --> 00:59:24.789
TikTok or Instagram or big trailers. The only

00:59:24.789 --> 00:59:27.750
time I see advertisements for movies is the full

00:59:27.750 --> 00:59:30.269
trailer, especially like I get it up on YouTube

00:59:30.269 --> 00:59:31.610
or something like that, or I'll see, oh, this

00:59:31.610 --> 00:59:34.070
trailer dropped and I'll watch it because I don't

00:59:34.070 --> 00:59:35.730
think any of us actually watch TV. And even if

00:59:35.730 --> 00:59:39.010
it's an, if it's a, um, like a commercial for

00:59:39.010 --> 00:59:41.670
a streaming service, it's only ever for the movies

00:59:41.670 --> 00:59:43.289
that are already on there, which case I will

00:59:43.289 --> 00:59:46.679
have already seen an ad for it anyway. so i feel

00:59:46.679 --> 00:59:48.119
like that's like a circular thing where you just

00:59:48.119 --> 00:59:51.639
never see the short ones anymore yeah now i will

00:59:51.639 --> 00:59:55.260
say that uh i went to my parents house recently

00:59:55.260 --> 00:59:58.940
they don't pay for the non -commercial version

00:59:58.940 --> 01:00:04.119
of prime oh i do so same i complain about you

01:00:04.119 --> 01:00:06.539
know ads or advertising other stuff on prime

01:00:06.539 --> 01:00:09.360
and i'm just like i'm paying for the ad free

01:00:09.360 --> 01:00:12.300
version of prime i know it's on prime why do

01:00:12.300 --> 01:00:14.679
i care to watch you know an advertisement for

01:00:14.679 --> 01:00:18.199
this However, going over to my parents' house

01:00:18.199 --> 01:00:20.880
and seeing the commercialized version of Prime,

01:00:21.079 --> 01:00:24.500
I'm like, I now see what I'm paying for. And,

01:00:24.579 --> 01:00:28.559
oh, my God, it's like television. And some of

01:00:28.559 --> 01:00:30.880
the ads, you know, you could be like three, four

01:00:30.880 --> 01:00:36.059
minutes long. It's insane. That's gross. Like,

01:00:36.059 --> 01:00:41.000
we were watching, what movie was that movie called

01:00:41.000 --> 01:00:43.480
where, you know, anything above a certain elevation,

01:00:43.719 --> 01:00:50.000
aliens couldn't go. oblivion no not oblivion

01:00:50.000 --> 01:00:52.940
it was a little recent one with uh the guy that's

01:00:52.940 --> 01:00:55.159
now playing the new captain america he was falcon

01:00:55.159 --> 01:00:59.679
uh -huh and the aliens you know showed up to

01:00:59.679 --> 01:01:02.239
earth they started killing everybody but they

01:01:02.239 --> 01:01:04.119
found out if they go above a certain elevation

01:01:04.119 --> 01:01:07.280
aliens couldn't go that far don't think i saw

01:01:07.280 --> 01:01:11.079
that one well we tried watching that movie where

01:01:11.079 --> 01:01:14.800
i did and I swear it was like every 20 minutes

01:01:14.800 --> 01:01:18.579
or so, all of a sudden, boom, commercials. And

01:01:18.579 --> 01:01:22.400
I'm just like, you know, that $2, $3 a month

01:01:22.400 --> 01:01:25.039
that I'm paying to not have commercials, totally

01:01:25.039 --> 01:01:30.119
worth it. Yeah. Because if I saw the same woman

01:01:30.119 --> 01:01:33.380
advertising Colgate toothpaste again, I was going

01:01:33.380 --> 01:01:36.380
to punt the screen and just replace it with one

01:01:36.380 --> 01:01:39.159
for my father. I was just getting irritated.

01:01:42.530 --> 01:01:47.150
So, let me ask you this. Is big media sacrificing

01:01:47.150 --> 01:01:50.230
standalone quality for continuous engagement

01:01:50.230 --> 01:01:54.050
and franchise growth? Because we're seeing a

01:01:54.050 --> 01:01:56.829
lot more small -scale stuff that's going to the

01:01:56.829 --> 01:01:59.190
streaming services rather than to the theaters,

01:01:59.369 --> 01:02:00.769
like you were talking about at the beginning

01:02:00.769 --> 01:02:06.090
of the show. Yeah. Well, I mean, it's obvious.

01:02:11.179 --> 01:02:13.920
You step in, Gibbs. My brain hurts just thinking

01:02:13.920 --> 01:02:17.420
about this. It's okay. Take your time. It's not

01:02:17.420 --> 01:02:19.420
even alcohol that's speaking. It's just straight

01:02:19.420 --> 01:02:21.880
up like, oh, God. Where's the leak? It hurts.

01:02:21.920 --> 01:02:25.260
It's in your brain. But no, I will agree that

01:02:25.260 --> 01:02:27.880
it's quantity over quality at this point. And

01:02:27.880 --> 01:02:31.840
if you notice, once COVID hit, the branch -offs

01:02:31.840 --> 01:02:34.360
in the Marvel universe for all the different

01:02:34.360 --> 01:02:37.579
TV shows, I haven't kept up with like half of

01:02:37.579 --> 01:02:40.039
them. To be fair, it's because the beginning

01:02:40.039 --> 01:02:41.840
of Hawkeye sucked and I couldn't get through

01:02:41.840 --> 01:02:44.260
it. And I just never bothered to fucking finish

01:02:44.260 --> 01:02:47.219
it. And I couldn't stand, what's her name? The

01:02:47.219 --> 01:02:51.719
other one. I forget, whatever. But the point

01:02:51.719 --> 01:02:53.179
is, I've seen that with a lot of different series.

01:02:53.940 --> 01:02:56.940
Where, you know, they're just not putting in

01:02:56.940 --> 01:02:58.940
the quality work. Because they're so used to,

01:02:58.960 --> 01:03:00.820
at least content people will watch no matter

01:03:00.820 --> 01:03:03.039
the quality. And unfortunately, a lot of people,

01:03:03.159 --> 01:03:05.539
they just put shows on in the background. How

01:03:05.539 --> 01:03:07.659
many people do you know will actually sit there

01:03:07.659 --> 01:03:10.539
and only watch a TV show? A lot of people, they

01:03:10.539 --> 01:03:11.960
have their phone on, they're scrolling through,

01:03:12.019 --> 01:03:13.300
they watch in the background, they're cleaning

01:03:13.300 --> 01:03:16.219
the house, they're doing something else. It's

01:03:16.219 --> 01:03:19.119
just not, it used to be the active thing was

01:03:19.119 --> 01:03:20.619
you would sit there and watch a movie and it

01:03:20.619 --> 01:03:23.559
would have 100 % of your attention. Now I see

01:03:23.559 --> 01:03:25.699
it as more of a background thing for a lot of

01:03:25.699 --> 01:03:29.440
people. Yeah. And when I'm cooking, I'll YouTube.

01:03:29.840 --> 01:03:35.010
Yeah. Music for me, for background stuff. I,

01:03:35.030 --> 01:03:37.170
I, I've got that tism where if there's something

01:03:37.170 --> 01:03:39.110
on and there's people doing things, I will watch.

01:03:39.269 --> 01:03:45.389
So, uh, but that, that brings up another topic

01:03:45.389 --> 01:03:48.130
in, in the entertainment stuff. Uh, the soft

01:03:48.130 --> 01:03:51.949
reboot epidemic, um, why are studios constantly

01:03:51.949 --> 01:03:53.929
returning to properties from 20 and 30 years

01:03:53.929 --> 01:03:58.349
ago? Are they just out of ideas? Is it purely

01:03:58.349 --> 01:04:01.449
financial or are they still trying to hit demographic

01:04:01.449 --> 01:04:04.849
sweet spots that they can exploit? it's easy

01:04:04.849 --> 01:04:07.329
you've already got the stories right now why

01:04:07.329 --> 01:04:10.550
not you could just be in like a cartoon you could

01:04:10.550 --> 01:04:13.969
just reanimate it to today's you know art style

01:04:13.969 --> 01:04:16.869
yeah you know a little bit better graphics a

01:04:16.869 --> 01:04:19.190
little bit better this little you know tweak

01:04:19.190 --> 01:04:21.230
well a little bit hold on hold on the script

01:04:21.230 --> 01:04:25.309
you you say that cgi is getting markedly worse

01:04:25.309 --> 01:04:28.969
over the years Look at Transformers, like the

01:04:28.969 --> 01:04:31.909
first Transformers movie. The CGI in that movie

01:04:31.909 --> 01:04:35.750
was fucking chef's kiss. Now you look at the

01:04:35.750 --> 01:04:38.809
movies that are coming out, it's garbage. Like

01:04:38.809 --> 01:04:42.030
what happened? Did they forget how to CGI or

01:04:42.030 --> 01:04:45.409
what? So I will say it peaked with the first

01:04:45.409 --> 01:04:49.889
Avatar movie. I feel like that had... The first

01:04:49.889 --> 01:04:52.869
Avatar movie. Oh, you mean the Blue People Avatar.

01:04:53.010 --> 01:04:56.570
Blue People Avatar. Okay, yeah. I was going to

01:04:56.570 --> 01:05:00.849
say, fanfic doesn't count. I watched that movie

01:05:00.849 --> 01:05:04.210
so many times compared the second Avatar to the

01:05:04.210 --> 01:05:08.230
first one. Just like a scene that spoke, that

01:05:08.230 --> 01:05:10.530
just stuck out for me the most is when the animals

01:05:10.530 --> 01:05:13.949
are running through the rainforest and James

01:05:13.949 --> 01:05:16.110
Cameron has the camera show where they're hitting

01:05:16.110 --> 01:05:18.650
the water and stuff. The first time that movie

01:05:18.650 --> 01:05:21.889
came out, it was amazing. Comparing that to now.

01:05:22.590 --> 01:05:25.730
You can literally see the delay where the animal's

01:05:25.730 --> 01:05:28.730
hoof hits the water, nothing happens, and all

01:05:28.730 --> 01:05:31.550
of a sudden there's a splash. From the new one?

01:05:32.750 --> 01:05:35.469
Yeah, compared to the new one. The new one, oh

01:05:35.469 --> 01:05:39.769
my god. That water effects is amazing. Especially

01:05:39.769 --> 01:05:43.010
if you compare it to other movies and stuff.

01:05:43.670 --> 01:05:46.909
He has that water effect on point. That, to me,

01:05:46.949 --> 01:05:53.059
was... Interesting. Yeah. But if you compare

01:05:53.059 --> 01:05:54.800
it to the first one, it's like night and day

01:05:54.800 --> 01:05:57.179
difference. Yeah. Really? Maybe it was the screen

01:05:57.179 --> 01:05:59.000
I was watching it on. Maybe it's because I have

01:05:59.000 --> 01:06:00.460
like a regular, like I don't have an OLED or

01:06:00.460 --> 01:06:02.840
anything that's like crazy. But to me, it didn't

01:06:02.840 --> 01:06:07.679
look that much better. Yeah. I mean, there's

01:06:07.679 --> 01:06:09.920
certain things that, yeah, okay. They probably

01:06:09.920 --> 01:06:13.519
look the same, but I don't know. Just for me,

01:06:13.699 --> 01:06:16.579
from my perspective, there was certain stuff

01:06:16.579 --> 01:06:20.539
that from 20 years ago or however long it was

01:06:20.539 --> 01:06:22.989
when the movie first came out, Yeah, it looked

01:06:22.989 --> 01:06:25.469
amazing then because compared to everything else

01:06:25.469 --> 01:06:29.090
out at the time, the effects were considerably

01:06:29.090 --> 01:06:32.409
better. But then you compare it to the latest

01:06:32.409 --> 01:06:34.630
Avatar, and then you compare the first one to

01:06:34.630 --> 01:06:37.250
the second one, and it's like, oh, there's a

01:06:37.250 --> 01:06:41.510
big difference. It's not as obvious if you don't

01:06:41.510 --> 01:06:44.090
know what to look for. But if you're actually

01:06:44.090 --> 01:06:46.730
breaking down the different scenes and stuff,

01:06:46.849 --> 01:06:50.429
you can start kind of picking out different things

01:06:50.429 --> 01:06:52.820
that it's like, oh. Well, that's kind of jumping

01:06:52.820 --> 01:06:55.420
out at me. That doesn't look as good as it used

01:06:55.420 --> 01:06:59.820
to. Just like I said, water effects, totally

01:06:59.820 --> 01:07:03.079
upgrade. So then let me bring out the second

01:07:03.079 --> 01:07:05.199
point that I was going to make, which is a lot

01:07:05.199 --> 01:07:07.000
of people argue that the Pirates of the Caribbean

01:07:07.000 --> 01:07:10.519
series has some of the best CGI ever done. But

01:07:10.519 --> 01:07:14.420
you can argue that some of it isn't exactly photorealistic,

01:07:14.460 --> 01:07:17.420
but it has a character to it. It has an interesting

01:07:17.420 --> 01:07:20.909
quality where... It has a lot of detail, but

01:07:20.909 --> 01:07:22.610
it doesn't overload you with detail. It looks

01:07:22.610 --> 01:07:25.610
very pleasing to the eye. I guess my other point

01:07:25.610 --> 01:07:29.889
was going to be there comes a point in CGI where

01:07:29.889 --> 01:07:32.289
when it becomes so overly photorealistic and

01:07:32.289 --> 01:07:35.269
detailed that it almost gives this uncanny valley

01:07:35.269 --> 01:07:37.710
effect. Where like when you're looking at a person

01:07:37.710 --> 01:07:40.969
regularly, you don't notice all the fine little

01:07:40.969 --> 01:07:43.730
details in every pore and every little single

01:07:43.730 --> 01:07:46.349
hair. It becomes to a point where there's so

01:07:46.349 --> 01:07:49.969
much detail, it doesn't feel real. Whereas I

01:07:49.969 --> 01:07:51.949
feel like in those movies, they focused on the

01:07:51.949 --> 01:07:54.309
details that you're going to see, but they didn't

01:07:54.309 --> 01:07:55.789
waste times on the things that you're not going

01:07:55.789 --> 01:07:57.170
to see. And one of the things I'm noticing with

01:07:57.170 --> 01:08:00.309
everything is they don't look at the main character

01:08:00.309 --> 01:08:02.690
being detailed and kind of letting everything

01:08:02.690 --> 01:08:05.710
else be background. It's almost everything all

01:08:05.710 --> 01:08:10.389
the time is the character, which sometimes almost

01:08:10.389 --> 01:08:12.929
becomes overloading in some of these action sequences

01:08:12.929 --> 01:08:15.500
and screens where it's like. Jesus Christ, you

01:08:15.500 --> 01:08:18.039
could go up to there and count like 97 million

01:08:18.039 --> 01:08:20.399
pieces of hair in every character. It's like,

01:08:20.420 --> 01:08:22.539
that's great. But if you're watching on a regular

01:08:22.539 --> 01:08:25.659
TV, it doesn't matter. It's not going to show

01:08:25.659 --> 01:08:31.039
anything. So I can't watch 4K stuff. Why? Because

01:08:31.039 --> 01:08:34.279
it looks like, you know, back in the 60s where

01:08:34.279 --> 01:08:36.760
they had like the little spaceships dangling

01:08:36.760 --> 01:08:39.300
from strings and shit. And it looks like it was

01:08:39.300 --> 01:08:42.260
superimposed over another video. That's what

01:08:42.260 --> 01:08:46.579
it looks like to me. like most stuff in 4k that

01:08:46.579 --> 01:08:50.260
i have seen it just looks especially when it's

01:08:50.260 --> 01:08:52.479
like older stuff that's been brought up to 4k

01:08:52.479 --> 01:08:59.600
watch independence day in 4k like the yeah the

01:08:59.600 --> 01:09:02.979
the scene where he's flying the jet chasing the

01:09:02.979 --> 01:09:06.960
ufo through the the canyon oh my god that scene

01:09:06.960 --> 01:09:09.060
just looks like it's right out of a 60s flick

01:09:09.060 --> 01:09:12.319
with the the string ships and stuff Well, yeah,

01:09:12.340 --> 01:09:15.579
a lot of that was practical anyway, so. Yeah,

01:09:15.619 --> 01:09:19.739
but I mean, a lot of the upscaled stuff, it's

01:09:19.739 --> 01:09:23.760
impossible. Now, if you have a shot in IMAX made

01:09:23.760 --> 01:09:30.439
for 8K OLED Ultra, tickle your balls with someone's

01:09:30.439 --> 01:09:33.159
consoles, you know, that kind of screen, then

01:09:33.159 --> 01:09:37.720
yes, it looks fucking amazing, but I don't have

01:09:37.720 --> 01:09:43.920
a $25 ,000 TV. I have a $389 TV. You don't have

01:09:43.920 --> 01:09:46.079
a $25 ,000 TV? What kind of American are you?

01:09:46.619 --> 01:09:51.079
I know. I have a new projector that I paid like

01:09:51.079 --> 01:09:55.819
$160 for that actually looks as good as my TV

01:09:55.819 --> 01:10:02.260
upstairs. I'm like beside myself how good this

01:10:02.260 --> 01:10:05.420
projector looks. Did you get this after we came

01:10:05.420 --> 01:10:07.760
out the last time? No, it was here. We just didn't

01:10:07.760 --> 01:10:11.520
use it. I used it last year when we were watching

01:10:11.520 --> 01:10:17.439
Formula One. Yeah. Last year, y 'all had that

01:10:17.439 --> 01:10:21.020
one, but this time I had just gotten it and we

01:10:21.020 --> 01:10:23.460
just didn't do anything with it. Y 'all can do

01:10:23.460 --> 01:10:29.000
that again. We'll use it next year. Cool. Here's

01:10:29.000 --> 01:10:32.619
the best movie you could think of that would

01:10:32.619 --> 01:10:39.310
take even today's standards. No, not porn. I

01:10:39.310 --> 01:10:41.590
was going to say Jurassic Park. Oh, fuck yeah.

01:10:42.289 --> 01:10:45.529
The first one? Yes. The way Spielberg did that?

01:10:45.670 --> 01:10:47.270
It still holds up. You can put that against any

01:10:47.270 --> 01:10:51.789
movie. Yeah. We're talking how long now? Jesus.

01:10:52.069 --> 01:10:58.390
Yeah. And the way that was done with the CGI

01:10:58.390 --> 01:11:01.989
and the puppetry and everything mixed. The physical

01:11:01.989 --> 01:11:06.090
effects, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. If they would just

01:11:06.090 --> 01:11:14.119
do that now. It'd be scary. Right. All right.

01:11:14.140 --> 01:11:17.779
So we'll get off the movies and stuff. A little

01:11:17.779 --> 01:11:20.920
bit of news. And if you've noticed, again, I

01:11:20.920 --> 01:11:25.220
put some shiny eyes on my microphone here. Someone

01:11:25.220 --> 01:11:28.659
put googly eyes on some statues over in Oregon.

01:11:29.760 --> 01:11:32.199
The question is, is it vandalism or visionary

01:11:32.199 --> 01:11:40.920
art? Well, if you can take them down, if you

01:11:40.920 --> 01:11:42.880
can take the googly eyes down, then it's not

01:11:42.880 --> 01:11:49.399
painful. Yeah. It's still art. Yes. So now my

01:11:49.399 --> 01:11:52.520
mic, as I have verbally abused this microphone

01:11:52.520 --> 01:11:54.979
over the past year, it has seen some things,

01:11:55.000 --> 01:12:00.779
as you can see by the expression. So a deep sea

01:12:00.779 --> 01:12:06.789
death ball sponge eats animals. Scientists find

01:12:06.789 --> 01:12:10.069
30 freaky species under Antarctica, including

01:12:10.069 --> 01:12:13.649
a carnivorous sponge that rolls up like a tumbleweed

01:12:13.649 --> 01:12:17.770
to munch on sea critters. That sounds kind of

01:12:17.770 --> 01:12:20.390
terrifying because sponges aren't usually carnivores.

01:12:21.689 --> 01:12:26.770
So Spongebob got hungry. Spongebob on bath salts,

01:12:26.850 --> 01:12:37.600
basically. He's back on the menu. Yes. Honestly,

01:12:37.640 --> 01:12:39.859
imagine... I don't think that's right, SpongeBob.

01:12:40.060 --> 01:12:42.439
Imagine SpongeBob as like a serial killer that's

01:12:42.439 --> 01:12:45.859
like a cannibal. Yeah, just imagine that in the

01:12:45.859 --> 01:12:47.640
background. It's the hash -slinging slasher.

01:12:47.779 --> 01:12:52.720
No, it's me. Careful, SpongeBob. They have no

01:12:52.720 --> 01:12:58.869
one to... The only thing to fear in the night

01:12:58.869 --> 01:13:02.649
is Spongebob. There's nothing to fear but me.

01:13:04.409 --> 01:13:17.810
No, not Gary. Leave Gary alone. Oh, God. You

01:13:17.810 --> 01:13:20.470
know, rewriting Spongebob is a horror film like

01:13:20.470 --> 01:13:23.229
they did with Winnie the Pooh. I could get behind

01:13:23.229 --> 01:13:28.430
that like 100%. Oh, yeah. Oh, okay. I said we

01:13:28.430 --> 01:13:30.909
were getting off the AI and the movie shit. If

01:13:30.909 --> 01:13:34.449
somebody could go and do AI -generated movies

01:13:34.449 --> 01:13:38.430
with cartoons written as horror movies, I would

01:13:38.430 --> 01:13:41.789
fucking watch them. Fuck. Well, you know, SpongeBob

01:13:41.789 --> 01:13:44.550
was really supposed to be an adult show, so you

01:13:44.550 --> 01:13:46.970
know about that, right? Oh, so like when you

01:13:46.970 --> 01:13:55.810
watch Sandy give him a sponge job? A penny raid.

01:13:56.729 --> 01:14:02.170
Yeah. What are you, a square old man crab? Yeah.

01:14:04.229 --> 01:14:07.430
And then the last big article I've got is that

01:14:07.430 --> 01:14:11.569
a giant floating pumpkin race in Oregon. This

01:14:11.569 --> 01:14:13.250
is going to be Thanksgiving's weirder cousin

01:14:13.250 --> 01:14:17.010
as crowds go nuts for a pumpkin regatta. Massive

01:14:17.010 --> 01:14:19.829
gourds turned into boats capsizing into lakes

01:14:19.829 --> 01:14:23.850
like edible Titanic. $20 tickets for vegetable

01:14:23.850 --> 01:14:28.050
chaos. And on that, I do have a very terrible

01:14:28.050 --> 01:14:31.989
dad joke I'd like to tell. Do you guys know what

01:14:31.989 --> 01:14:38.989
the prettiest food for Thanksgiving is? The stumped

01:14:38.989 --> 01:14:41.529
look on your face says no. It is, in fact, the

01:14:41.529 --> 01:14:45.090
pumpkin. And that's because they're gorgeous.

01:14:46.689 --> 01:14:57.649
Oh, my God. I like a dad joke. Oh, yes. I am

01:14:57.649 --> 01:15:04.489
a terrible human being for that one. Gibbs. I'm

01:15:04.489 --> 01:15:09.390
not going to try it with a response. I defy it.

01:15:14.229 --> 01:15:17.789
Oh, you're welcome. I know it's horrible. It

01:15:17.789 --> 01:15:21.029
was so bad. I could literally taste the disgust

01:15:21.029 --> 01:15:26.869
of the air. Was it salty? Yes. Salt my fries

01:15:26.869 --> 01:15:35.229
with it. I would have facepalmed so hard. My

01:15:35.229 --> 01:15:42.689
palm would be five feet behind my face. But also,

01:15:42.770 --> 01:15:44.489
so you're talking about there's like people are

01:15:44.489 --> 01:15:46.130
hauling out pumpkins and stuff and floating them

01:15:46.130 --> 01:15:48.789
down a river? Yes. How big are these pumpkins?

01:15:49.029 --> 01:15:50.869
That's what I was going to ask. Like, how fucking

01:15:50.869 --> 01:15:53.670
big are these pumpkins that you can fit some

01:15:53.670 --> 01:15:56.050
average Americans in them? Because if they're

01:15:56.050 --> 01:15:57.810
big enough to hold an average Walmart shopper,

01:15:57.810 --> 01:16:07.210
my fucking God. To quote the offstage voice from

01:16:07.210 --> 01:16:13.890
Deuce Bigelow. That's a huge bitch. Yeah. That's

01:16:13.890 --> 01:16:16.310
a giant pumpkin. Is a pumpkin, because of the

01:16:16.310 --> 01:16:18.609
oil with the shell, are they naturally waterproof?

01:16:19.069 --> 01:16:22.149
Are they hydrophobic? And if so, do they make

01:16:22.149 --> 01:16:28.170
a decent boat? We could get some and try it out.

01:16:28.289 --> 01:16:30.329
Because if so, here's my question. Why doesn't

01:16:30.329 --> 01:16:32.550
someone make a business just making big pumpkins

01:16:32.550 --> 01:16:37.979
into boats? It's environmentally friendly. It

01:16:37.979 --> 01:16:39.560
wouldn't last very long. Just cover them in wax.

01:16:40.920 --> 01:16:43.140
Yeah. Coat the inside with like resin or something.

01:16:43.260 --> 01:16:45.220
You know, if they last like a couple of weeks,

01:16:45.380 --> 01:16:48.159
I mean, that'd be cool for like an event. I've,

01:16:48.220 --> 01:16:52.590
I've seen, I did have. On this episode of Short

01:16:52.590 --> 01:16:54.510
Bus Science, we're going to see how much wax

01:16:54.510 --> 01:16:57.409
it takes to fully waterproof a pumpkin. Short

01:16:57.409 --> 01:17:02.289
Bus Science. Oh, my God. Row, row, row your pumpkin

01:17:02.289 --> 01:17:06.350
gently down the stream. Yeah. I have seen where

01:17:06.350 --> 01:17:08.489
someone took a piece of pumpkin pie and encased

01:17:08.489 --> 01:17:13.810
it in resin. So there's that. I've also seen

01:17:13.810 --> 01:17:17.550
pumpkins in resin. Does resin perfectly preserve

01:17:17.550 --> 01:17:23.319
something? It can, depending on how you do it.

01:17:23.439 --> 01:17:26.060
Because resin will get hot, so you've got to

01:17:26.060 --> 01:17:28.239
be careful how you do it. So it cooks the pumpkin.

01:17:29.359 --> 01:17:31.600
Well, you also have to remember there's bacteria

01:17:31.600 --> 01:17:34.640
on the objective when you put it in resin. So

01:17:34.640 --> 01:17:38.260
unless you kill the bacteria, it's still going

01:17:38.260 --> 01:17:40.939
to have that in the resin. So the bacteria is

01:17:40.939 --> 01:17:43.359
still going to break down what's in there. So

01:17:43.359 --> 01:17:47.560
you have to spray alcohol on it. Yes, you have

01:17:47.560 --> 01:17:52.640
to sterilize it. Now, also with a pumpkin, you

01:17:52.640 --> 01:17:58.560
might have to remove its guts and trade it like

01:17:58.560 --> 01:18:03.000
a really rough date on a Friday night to get

01:18:03.000 --> 01:18:05.680
it ready. What kind of dates have you been on

01:18:05.680 --> 01:18:07.920
to call that a rough date? Organ harvesting.

01:18:08.039 --> 01:18:12.640
He does organ harvesting. It gets good prices

01:18:12.640 --> 01:18:15.010
for kidneys, apparently. When you're sitting

01:18:15.010 --> 01:18:16.829
there digging the guts out of a pumpkin and the

01:18:16.829 --> 01:18:18.430
girl's watching you and she's getting excited,

01:18:18.670 --> 01:18:20.649
you just look over at her and you say, don't

01:18:20.649 --> 01:18:25.590
worry, you're next. And she's like, ooh. You

01:18:25.590 --> 01:18:28.069
know you're in for a great ride. That's called

01:18:28.069 --> 01:18:30.010
trauma. I still have all my organs, though, okay?

01:18:30.329 --> 01:18:35.050
That is trauma. That's a trauma response. That's

01:18:35.050 --> 01:18:40.310
concerning. I've done a lot of things in life.

01:18:41.369 --> 01:18:43.810
I feel like every week with you, I'm understanding

01:18:43.810 --> 01:18:45.649
you a little bit more from more of a therapist

01:18:45.649 --> 01:18:49.010
perspective, not just a friend. Why do you think

01:18:49.010 --> 01:18:51.590
I don't go to therapy? I'm worried I'd get committed.

01:18:52.970 --> 01:18:54.890
I'd be sitting there making a joke and laughing,

01:18:54.949 --> 01:18:58.750
and they'd be sitting there like, hmm. And now

01:18:58.750 --> 01:19:00.670
you know why the other branches of the military

01:19:00.670 --> 01:19:10.949
make fun of the Navy. Oh, shit. And it's not

01:19:10.949 --> 01:19:12.890
because we're trying to make fun of it. We're

01:19:12.890 --> 01:19:15.289
just worried, but we don't know how to express

01:19:15.289 --> 01:19:21.149
that worry. You know, all I can think about now

01:19:21.149 --> 01:19:24.569
is do we have a pumpkin race where whoever can

01:19:24.569 --> 01:19:28.369
build the best pumpkin boat wins? The problem

01:19:28.369 --> 01:19:30.789
is how the fuck do you build a pumpkin or grow

01:19:30.789 --> 01:19:35.810
a pumpkin big enough to be a boat? You get seeds

01:19:35.810 --> 01:19:40.649
from a big pumpkin. You start there. but I don't

01:19:40.649 --> 01:19:43.130
think it matters the size. We just have to stipulate

01:19:43.130 --> 01:19:44.829
a few things. Like, how can it be propelled?

01:19:45.930 --> 01:19:49.470
Sales. Damn. Or if you want to use electric,

01:19:49.510 --> 01:19:53.949
you can. I don't need electric. You know, as

01:19:53.949 --> 01:19:55.449
soon as you mentioned that, all I could think

01:19:55.449 --> 01:20:01.289
is Nigel and Marmalade with the little fly blowing

01:20:01.289 --> 01:20:04.109
through a straw so he can go down the shit river.

01:20:06.189 --> 01:20:10.500
I want to make a rocket -powered pumpkin. Yeah,

01:20:10.500 --> 01:20:16.939
it's going to fall apart. Have you not seen where

01:20:16.939 --> 01:20:19.899
they launch pumpkins out of catapults? Yes, pumpkin

01:20:19.899 --> 01:20:23.359
chunking. I can make a rocket -powered pumpkin,

01:20:23.460 --> 01:20:26.479
okay? I mean, yeah, that's true. You just stick

01:20:26.479 --> 01:20:28.539
a pumpkin on the top of a rocket and you yeet

01:20:28.539 --> 01:20:32.239
it. But there's no... Yeah, it's the same principle

01:20:32.239 --> 01:20:35.039
as taking a full -size skeleton and putting it

01:20:35.039 --> 01:20:38.140
on a rocket and see what happens. I watched that

01:20:38.140 --> 01:20:41.770
today. You take a corpse and shove a rocket up

01:20:41.770 --> 01:20:44.609
his ass and put it on the water. See what happens.

01:20:45.409 --> 01:20:47.649
That's a weird animal. For science. For science.

01:20:48.430 --> 01:20:50.750
Yeah, to give someone a firework animal wasn't

01:20:50.750 --> 01:20:56.369
on my Sunday list, but, you know. Jesus. Also,

01:20:56.409 --> 01:20:58.550
we'll say pumpkin chunking is kind of a fun thing

01:20:58.550 --> 01:21:00.750
to watch because of people screwing up. Yeah.

01:21:01.239 --> 01:21:03.359
Uh -huh. Like the one where that came back and

01:21:03.359 --> 01:21:06.340
knocked her right in the face. Oh, my God. That

01:21:06.340 --> 01:21:08.420
would have required so much surgery and medical

01:21:08.420 --> 01:21:09.539
attention, getting like a 10 -pound pumpkin.

01:21:09.539 --> 01:21:12.840
I know. It was so bad. Wasn't that the watermelon

01:21:12.840 --> 01:21:15.520
on the Great Race or whatever it was? It was

01:21:15.520 --> 01:21:17.479
a watermelon. Something like that. Same difference.

01:21:18.579 --> 01:21:21.859
That would still suck. So bad. But pumpkin chunker

01:21:21.859 --> 01:21:23.479
is kind of cool because the big air cannons they

01:21:23.479 --> 01:21:25.760
would use and shit in the other catapults. Oh,

01:21:25.840 --> 01:21:27.399
yeah. It's something that would spin up to like

01:21:27.399 --> 01:21:29.619
several hundred RPM. It was like a five or six

01:21:29.619 --> 01:21:33.409
foot long arm. That's terrifying because when

01:21:33.409 --> 01:21:35.229
you know a bunch of rednecks are building, it's

01:21:35.229 --> 01:21:36.850
not like they used anything called a protractor

01:21:36.850 --> 01:21:39.289
measuring tape. They're just kind of, yeah, free

01:21:39.289 --> 01:21:41.149
will with a welder and a scrapyard. They're like,

01:21:41.210 --> 01:21:43.829
let's fucking send it. Like there's no... Junkyard

01:21:43.829 --> 01:21:50.289
wars, but for rednecks. Yeah. God. You know what?

01:21:50.529 --> 01:21:52.170
Now that you mention it, I have not seen that

01:21:52.170 --> 01:21:55.970
on TV or anywhere like in years. Well, they took

01:21:55.970 --> 01:21:57.829
junkyard wars off because it was giving people

01:21:57.829 --> 01:22:02.479
too many ideas. Hence, Killdozer. You know. Killdozer

01:22:02.479 --> 01:22:10.479
predates Junkyard Wars. I know. I know. All right.

01:22:12.399 --> 01:22:15.340
That was all the topics that we had. I knew this

01:22:15.340 --> 01:22:17.520
was going to be a short episode tonight. It was

01:22:17.520 --> 01:22:19.300
not. I don't know. We did pretty well. It was

01:22:19.300 --> 01:22:22.699
not a short episode. Well, we had a lot of shenanigans

01:22:22.699 --> 01:22:26.710
beforehand. Yeah, well, valid. But still. when

01:22:26.710 --> 01:22:28.170
do we not the problem is if you get all three

01:22:28.170 --> 01:22:32.329
of us talking it's never a short episode i didn't

01:22:32.329 --> 01:22:34.390
do noodles and nips before we went live that's

01:22:34.390 --> 01:22:38.170
why we fucked things up oh we can't do them now

01:22:38.170 --> 01:22:44.829
now you're fucking up even worse oh shit yeah

01:22:44.829 --> 01:22:50.689
it's uh i still can't believe the next week is

01:22:50.689 --> 01:22:54.050
a year Yeah. That blows my mind. We made it a

01:22:54.050 --> 01:22:57.689
year with no bans, no strikes, no warnings, nothing.

01:22:57.930 --> 01:23:02.390
I know. And I still have been pulling shit out

01:23:02.390 --> 01:23:06.329
of the bag and traumatizing you weekly almost.

01:23:06.750 --> 01:23:10.710
Well, it's a pretty big bag. It's bigger than

01:23:10.710 --> 01:23:17.460
Santa's. That's the eternal bag of holding. Let

01:23:17.460 --> 01:23:25.399
me show you my eternal bag of trauma. Yeah, it

01:23:25.399 --> 01:23:29.060
should be awesome. You call it mental illness.

01:23:29.119 --> 01:23:36.560
I call it depression. I call it living. So, yeah,

01:23:36.640 --> 01:23:39.779
we're hoping the next week's episode is really,

01:23:39.920 --> 01:23:45.300
really fun. it should hopefully the the biggest

01:23:45.300 --> 01:23:47.039
issue is that we're going to have a companion

01:23:47.039 --> 01:23:50.460
video for it uh the episode itself shouldn't

01:23:50.460 --> 01:23:54.939
be that hard um but if getting the video is going

01:23:54.939 --> 01:23:57.380
to be harder than getting some older guy pumped

01:23:57.380 --> 01:24:00.460
full of viagra to perform but we can still get

01:24:00.460 --> 01:24:03.199
it get it done and get it uh put together for

01:24:03.199 --> 01:24:09.989
y 'all what i'm just one of these days We're

01:24:09.989 --> 01:24:11.470
going to have to set a challenge for you to not

01:24:11.470 --> 01:24:14.090
mention any genitalia for an entire episode.

01:24:14.250 --> 01:24:15.630
And I want to watch your head just impossible.

01:24:16.010 --> 01:24:19.069
Yeah. Impossible. His head will explode. Do you

01:24:19.069 --> 01:24:20.390
remember being with somebody when they weren't

01:24:20.390 --> 01:24:21.989
allowed to laugh for the entire school day? That'll

01:24:21.989 --> 01:24:30.529
be me. Yes. Whoops. I hit my microphone. Yeah.

01:24:32.670 --> 01:24:39.649
So anything else we need to get out there? I

01:24:39.649 --> 01:24:42.510
swore I would never do this, and I think it's

01:24:42.510 --> 01:24:44.229
about time that we might have to start doing

01:24:44.229 --> 01:24:46.970
this and start trying to whore ourselves out

01:24:46.970 --> 01:24:52.029
a little bit. We're getting to that point. Maybe

01:24:52.029 --> 01:24:56.609
start having people liking, sharing, doing the

01:24:56.609 --> 01:24:59.310
subscribing thing. I trust people that they know

01:24:59.310 --> 01:25:03.930
how to do the internet, but I'd love to see some

01:25:03.930 --> 01:25:06.510
more growth. I'd love to hear about some more

01:25:06.510 --> 01:25:09.449
engagement. I'd like to see. More interaction

01:25:09.449 --> 01:25:13.670
on the Discord and on the socials. So, you know,

01:25:13.689 --> 01:25:20.689
interaction helps manage growth. Also, we have

01:25:20.689 --> 01:25:26.170
some new things coming probably this week that

01:25:26.170 --> 01:25:29.250
are not normal channel things. We're going to

01:25:29.250 --> 01:25:32.029
try to kind of stick our appendages into other

01:25:32.029 --> 01:25:37.880
holes and see how it goes. We'll... don't give

01:25:37.880 --> 01:25:40.880
me that look i can give you a look any look i

01:25:40.880 --> 01:25:45.300
fucking want to it's a disappointment look that

01:25:45.300 --> 01:25:47.779
